I don't have the full context here, but I think for this specific case (writing
reset vector of other core), you don't need to invent a new interface. You can
just do an uncached store (ST.di) which will ensure that the data goes straight to
memory. You need to make sure that this line is not in other cores' caches L1
and/or L2 - which can probably be assumed if it's just coming out of reset.
