What I mean is h/w blocks don't just start at some address with small 
alignment. That wouldn't work from a physical design standpoint. The 
larger block here is "CPU System Regs". The block as a whole should be 
documented, but maybe that ship already sailed.

Also, here you call it the OIC, but the link above calls it the VCore 
interrupt controller.
