The on-chip devices and the on-board devices will be allocated some fixed
physical address that are mapped to some virtual address. All of the
devices may not require bus_space functionality to be implemeted. But, it
would be better if both the above mentioned devices and the bus_space
update the information on a common table. This table will only be used to
display information so that the user can decide which memory area is free
and used it.
