I'll look into this next week. am3517 and IVA seems to be a really big
mystery. In the TI forum will be stated, there is no IVA:
http://e2e.ti.com/support/arm/sitara_arm/f/791/t/150961.aspx, but TRM
has various appearances of IVA2 registers, but no real
description/explanation of what is IVA and how to eat it.
