The CPU has an integrated graphics-accelerator and kitchen-sink, the 
major usage of this 'register' is for the graphics as well as for some 
configuration stuff so I guess that's why it is as far off as 0x40000000.

But I don't need it to launch the CPU, but as a base address to offset
from for stuff later on. Is there a better place to do this init?

(The init is:
	I query the CPU to give me the address of 0x40000000 and 
	second, map it.
)
