"Normal memory attributes"?

Hmm, looking at this made me a bit confused though. Normal uncached
memory is certainly bufferable (that's basically what write-combining
means).

This looks like a naming hangover from ARMv5 translation table format.
Is it about time we clean this up?
Or have I sprained my brain?
