Julien Grall Oct. 9, 2017, 1:23 p.m. UTC
This is based on the Linux ARMv8 naming scheme (see arch/arm64/mm/proc.S). Each
type will contain "NORMAL" or "DEVICE" to make clear whether each attribute
targets device or normal memory.

Signed-off-by: Julien Grall <julien.grall@arm.com>

---

    Changes in v3:
        - The ai '000' is named MT_DEVICE_nGnRnE and not
        MT_DEVICE_nGnRE. The definition is still valid.
        - Expand the comment to point to "Device Memory" section in the
        ARM ARM.

    Changes in v2:
        * Move the patch before "xen/arm: page: Clean-up the definition
        of MAIRVAL"
