	  MPU implements Memory Protection Unit.

	  Notes:
	  The ARMv8-R MPU architecture requires a power-of-two alignment
	  of MPU region base address and size(64 bytes aligned).

	  The ARMv8-R MPU requires the active MPU regions be non-overlapping.
	  As a result of this, the ARMv8-R MPU needs to fully partition the
	  memory map when programming dynamic memory regions (e.g. PRIV stack
	  guard, user thread stack, and application memory domains), if the
	  system requires PRIV access policy different from the access policy
	  of the ARMv8-R background memory map. The application developer may
	  enforce full PRIV (kernel) memory partition by enabling the
	  CONFIG_MPU_GAP_FILLING option.
	  By not enforcing full partition, MPU may leave part of kernel
	  SRAM area covered only by the default ARMv8-R memory map. This
	  is fine for User Mode, since the background ARM map does not
	  allow nPRIV access at all. However, since the background map
	  policy allows instruction fetches by privileged code, forcing
	  this Kconfig option off prevents the system from directly
	  triggering MemManage exceptions upon accidental attempts to
	  execute code from SRAM in XIP builds.
	  Since this does not compromise User Mode, we make the skipping
	  of full partitioning the default behavior for the ARMv8-R MPU
	  driver.
