Note the terminology in the GPU is *very* confusing here. Midgard refers
to the system's inner shareable domain as "outer shareable", and uses
"inner shareable" to mean purely within the GPU.

For data access kbase sets up a different default MEMATTR if ACE is
available:

        /* Set to implementation defined, outer caching */
        #define AS_MEMATTR_LPAE_OUTER_IMPL_DEF        0x88ull
[...]
        #define AS_MEMATTR_INDEX_DEFAULT_ACE           3
[...]
        /* Outer coherent, inner implementation defined policy */
        #define AS_MEMATTR_INDEX_OUTER_IMPL_DEF        3
