And there are no APIs for creating device mappings rather than exporting
the raw pagetable accessors and hard-coding them differently in every
board file?

Which instructions do you care about completing?

You'll certainly want any page table writes to complete, but is anything
else in-flight at this point in time?

Oh but it is ;)

Ok, so that orders them against everything _before_ them, but not with
respect to each other, or anything _after_ them.

When the MMU is off, you are correct that the ordering of these
operations w.r.t. each other doesn't matter. With the MMU on that's not
true as the CPU can rerder the operations and can walk the page tables
asynchronously.

Changing the MAIR at runtime is somewhat scary because you may be
changing attributes for entries which are active in the cache and/or
TLBs. I'm not sure I follow why you need to change it once the MMU is on
-- there are plenty of subfields in the MAIR that you could configure
before turning the MMU on for use later.

Likewise changing the TCR at runtime is somewhat scary because you can
change attributes of active cache and/or TLB entries, change fields that
affect the way page tables are walked (TG*. T*SZ), all asynchronously
w.r.t. the logic that walsk the page tables.

Changing the TTBR is fine, except that we didn't invalidate old entries
with a TLBI, so we may even have partial translations cahced in the
TLBs, and we can get odd translations generated from the combination of
the old and new tables.

I missed the TLB invaliation -- where is that meant to happen?
