	---help---
		This driver allows other kernel drivers access to the
		contents of the restricted access region control
		registers.

		The restricted access region control registers
		(rar_registers) are used to pass address and
		locking information on restricted access regions
		to other drivers that use restricted access regions

		The restricted access regions are regions of memory
		on the Intel MID Platform that are not accessible to
		the x86 processor, but are accessible to dedicated
		processors on board peripheral devices.

		The purpose of the restricted access regions is to
		protect sensitive data from compromise by unauthorized
		programs running on the x86 processor.
