We are running in real-mode so there is no mapping.
We use normal writes and flush the cache.
After we flush everything we then go after the IO regs to invalidate,  
that syncs the hell out of the processor.
I'm considering using our CI IO ops to update the DART table just to  
see if it makes a diff.
