This is a view of the world which is becoming steadily less true. It is not possible to configure a hardware A9MP without the GIC and internal peripherals, for example. And the A15's timer peripherals are accessed as cp15 registers, not memory mapped I/O, making them even more obviously a coherent part of the CPU. -- PMM
