You would aim to use the smallest number of SMRs per master possible.
You could probably use:

  Master 1: SMR[0].id == 0x20, SMR[0].mask = 0x07
            SMR[1].id == 0x28, SMR[1].mask = 0x00

  Master 2: SMR[2].id == 0x29, SMR[2].mask = 0x00

Note that since Calxeda went under, Andreas is unfortunately no longer
working on this.
