Yes, the prevailing sizes will be 0x2 here, since the 0x1 only apply to
_children_. However you still need to write the cells as separate 32-bit
entries, so the above encodes to memory regions from 0x0.0 to
0x0.40000000 and 0x0.40000000 to 0x0.80000000 (using . to show where the
cell boundary lies).

I don't know this platform, but that seems a plausible description of 2x
1GB regions.

I've not yet looked at the code closer to see what's going on.

Ian.
