I appreciate that, and don't disagree that the current scheme is not
obvious.

I just want to ensure that we don't make things less consistent, and if
we're going to change the scheme in order to make that easier, it should
be a separate patch. There'll be other changes like MMFR4_EL1, and we
should probably add a comment as to what the policy is either way (e.g.
if we're just grouping at the top level, or if that should be sorted
too).

Thanks,
Mark.
