I will post it today.

It's part of the ARMH0011 table. There are already a couple subtypes,
but a bunch more were added. It's table 3 in this document:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=403551
Notice how the new subtype is already deprecated. That's because it's
technically a bug for hardware to require 32-bit accesses.

It's part of the ARMH0011 table. There are already a couple subtypes,
