Yes. We don't have any MAIR entry on AArch64 that defines writeback
without alloc:

#define MT_DEVICE_NGNRNE        0
#define MT_DEVICE_NGNRE         1
#define MT_DEVICE_GRE           2
#define MT_NORMAL_NC            3
#define MT_NORMAL               4

#define MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES       ((0x00 << (MT_DEVICE_NGNRNE * 8)) |     \
                                (0x04 << (MT_DEVICE_NGNRE * 8))   |     \
                                (0x0c << (MT_DEVICE_GRE * 8))     |     \
                                (0x44 << (MT_NORMAL_NC * 8))      |     \
                                (UL(0xff) << (MT_NORMAL * 8)))

So MAIR entries 0-4 are:

0: Device memory, Device-nGnRnE memory
1: Device memory, Device-nGnRE memory
2: Device memory, Device-GRE memory
3: Normal Memory, Outer Non-Cacheable, Inner Non-Cacheable
4: Normal Memory, Outer Write-back non-transient, Outer Read Allocate,
Outer Write Allocate, Inner Write-back non-transient, Inner Read
Allocate, Inner Write Allocate

But on armv7 we map memory as non-allocated by default. So I wanted to
make sure we stay compatible with our RAM maps. Basically on armv8,
"writeback" and "writealloc" both mean "cached RAM".
