At least the way its implemented currently, invalidating FMRs individually
is likely to be faster than regular MRs, especially on memfree silicon:
you need at least 2 roundtrips to hardware to create an MR, FMR can be mapped
with memory writes. Invalidating both an MR and FMR needs one command in
both cases.
