 Architecture Page Table Helpers
 ===============================
 
 Generic MM expects architectures (with MMU) to provide helpers to create, access
 and modify page table entries at various level for different memory functions.
 These page table helpers need to conform to a common semantics across platforms.
 Following tables describe the expected semantics which can also be tested during
 boot via CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE option. All future changes in here or the debug
 test need to be in sync.
