contents of the restricted access region control
registers.

+ The restricted access region control registers
+ (rar_registers) are used to pass address and
+ locking information on restricted access regions
+ to other drivers that use restricted access regions
+
+ The restricted access regions are regions of memory
+ on the Intel MID Platform that are not accessible to
+ the x86 processor, but are accessible to dedicated
+ processors on board peripheral devices.
+
+ The purpose of the restricted access regions is to
+ protect sensitive data from compromise by unauthorized
+ programs running on the x86 processor.
