Thanks for the clarification, I totally missed TRE setting.
(Regarding MMR, I wanted to say Memory Mapped peripheral registers.)

So if TEX[0]=1 with CB=0 is "Device" then what does TEX[0]=0 with CB=0 make the
region?
I am asking this because the first (default) setting didn't work for me
when writing to the mapped region, while setting TEX[0]=0 worked.
I referred the comment in proc-v7.S, but couldn't make out the meaning of
'TEX[0],C,B= 000' (there is just a mention about 'UNCACHED' but with TR-00).
Thanks
