The current libmm/ARM (arm920) code used one level 1 MB sections for
protection. Also Sebastian implemented 1 MB sections for the new realview
BSP.


On ARMv7 there are more options. I used only the 1MiB sections because this is what the ARM9 based LPC32XX used. We may use larger sections in the future for ARMv7.
