What transactions does this affect exactly? Only some ITS tables? Or
all of them, including the command queue? What about the configuration
and pending tables associated with the redistributors?

How about the cacheability attribute? Can you please provide the exact
set of attributes that this system actually supports for each of the
ITS and redistributor base registers?

Also, please provide errata numbers for these two issues so that we
can properly document them and track the workarounds.

Thanks,
