Adding the word memory in front of translation is all that would be needed.
The co-processor 15 manages the MMU on ARM.
If you open the architecture manual and search for "translation table" you find
the information you need.
I see absolutely no point in adding more information here. ARM has excellent
manuals and all what you need is this header file plus the documentation
provided by ARM.
