The original intent was to keep LAWBAR0 free to allow external agents to initialise a different Boot Rom Interface.
Could you please explain that in a little more detail? I'm not really sure I understand what you're talking about, but I have a strange feeling that I need to.
The idea is that you could have a system with multiple 85xx processors in it. One can act as master and the others as slaves/ agents and lets say they are all connected over RapidIO. Having LAWBAR0 free allows for the master to come in and setup a global memory map for the whole system. John's probably got better details as I think that's what he did for the RapidIO based 85xx system he had.
