Is there a reason why we need this to be exposed, along with all the
page table manipulation in patch 7?
Is there a reason why we can't have new MT_ types for PAGE_HYP and
the HYP MT_DEVICE type (which is the same as MT_DEVICE but with
PTE_USER set) and have the standard ARM/generic kernel code build
those mappings?
That would (it seems) also avoid the need to export the pXd_clear_bad()
acessors too...
