I vaguely remember a case where you had to mark non-cacheable accesses as
outer-shareable explicitly to avoid unpredictable behaviour. Hmm.

/me looks at the Arm ARM

Ok, it looks like this changed between ARMv7 and ARMv8. The ARMv7 ARM
states:

  | A memory region with a resultant memory type attribute of Normal, and a
  | resultant cacheability attribute of Inner Non-cacheable, Outer
  | Non-cacheable, must have a resultant shareability attribute of Outer
  | Shareable, otherwise shareability is UNPREDICTABLE.

Although this only seems to be the case for LPAE! The short descriptor docs are
less clear, but I think it might be wise to ensure that non-cacheable mappings
are always outer-shareable for consistency.
