Hmm, ok. So all of those definitions should really move *out* of
ArmPkg/Include/Chipset/AArch64Mmu.h?
No, they can't, because some of the others are used in
ArmPkg/Library/ArmMmuLib/AArch64/ArmMmuLibCore.c
So I'm still feeling that #defines using the same namespace should
live together in order to reduce risk of future screwups.
So, unrelated to this patch
(Reviewed-by: Leif Lindholm <l...@nuviainc.com>)
should the remaining TT_ATTR_INDX_INVALID be renamed, or should it be
moved to ArmPkg/Include/Chipset/AArch64Mmu.h?
