So we probably want to make this conditional:

#if L_PTE_MT_DEV_SHARED != L_PTE_MT_DEV_NONSHARED
	... dev/non-shared entry
#endif

or we use a separate table for LPAE.

I think this needs to be a separate table - it's just too different,
and it looks like the PMD_SECT_USER and PMD_SECT_RDONLY can be
separately decoded.
