 /*
  * These are the memory types, defined to be compatible with
- * pre-ARMv6 CPUs cacheable and bufferable bits:   XXCB
+ * pre-ARMv6 CPUs cacheable and bufferable bits: n/a,n/a,C,B
+ * ARMv6+ without TEX remapping, they are a table index.
+ * ARMv6+ with TEX remapping, they correspond to n/a,TEX(0),C,B
+ *
+ * MT type		Pre-ARMv6	ARMv6+ type / cacheable status
+ * UNCACHED		Uncached	Strongly ordered
+ * BUFFERABLE		Bufferable	Normal memory / non-cacheable
+ * WRITETHROUGH		Writethrough	Normal memory / write through
+ * WRITEBACK		Writeback	Normal memory / write back, read alloc
+ * MINICACHE		Minicache	N/A
+ * WRITEALLOC		Writeback	Normal memory / write back, write alloc
+ * DEV_SHARED		Uncached	Device memory (shared)
+ * DEV_NONSHARED	Uncached	Device memory (non-shared)
+ * DEV_WC		Bufferable	Normal memory / non-cacheable
+ * DEV_CACHED		Writeback	Normal memory / write back, read alloc
+ * VECTORS		Variable	Normal memory / variable
+ *
+ * All normal memory mappings have the following properties:
+ * - reads can be repeated with no side effects
+ * - repeated reads return the last value written
+ * - reads can fetch additional locations without side effects
+ * - writes can be repeated (in certain cases) with no side effects
+ * - writes can be merged before accessing the target
+ * - unaligned accesses can be supported
+ *
+ * All device mappings have the following properties:
+ * - no access speculation
+ * - no repetition (eg, on return from an exception)
+ * - number, order and size of accesses are maintained
+ * - unaligned accesses are "unpredictable"
