"Extended regions support, device tree only (Arm)" here.

...
The extended regions are ranges of unused address space exposed to domains
as
"safe to use" for special memory mappings.
I've worded this as:

"Report unpopulated memory regions safe to use for foreign mappings,
Arm and device tree only."

As "extended regions" was IMO too vague. Let me know if that's OK.

I think, it is OK. Nit: maybe replace "foreign" with "foreign/grant"? I would be OK either way.

Thank you.



Thanks, Roger.
