Address translation
===================
x86 AMD
-------
Zen-based AMD systems include a Data Fabric that manages the layout of
physical memory. Devices attached to the Fabric, like memory controllers,
I/O, etc., may not have a complete view of the system physical memory map.
These devices may provide a "normalized", i.e. device physical, address
when reporting memory errors. Normalized addresses must be translated to
a system physical address for the kernel to action on the memory.
AMD Address Translation Library (CONFIG_AMD_ATL) provides translation for
this case.
Glossary of acronyms used in address translation for Zen-based systems
* CCM = Cache Coherent Moderator
* COD = Cluster-on-Die
* COH_ST = Coherent Station
* DF = Data Fabric
