As I mentioned in the cover letter - that's the goal. My (minor) worry
is how to treat such file... The A5 and A9 are very similar indeed, but
A7/A15 are slightly different. So there would be "a5_and_a9.c" and
"a7_and_a15.c" and "64bit_chip.c"... I'll see how it works.

Cool, didn't know about this :-) And as this is a PERIPHBASE value
(http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ddi0407g/CACCJFCJ.html) it could help with TWD as well.

I'll do one or the other.
Thanks!
