+ * The Atmel AT91SAM9 series has a small resource of 4 nonvolatile
+ * 32 Bit registers (buffered by the Vbu power).
+ *
+ * Please consider carefully before using this resource for tasks
+ * that do not really need nonvolatile registers. Maybe you can
+ * store information in EEPROM or FLASH instead.
+ *
+ * However, if you use a GPBR please document its use here and
+ * reference the define in your code!
+ *
+ * known typical uses of the GPBRs:
+ * GPBR[0]: offset for RTT timekeeping (u-boot, kernel)
+ * GPBR[1]: unused
+ * GPBR[2]: unused
+ * GPBR[3]: bootcount (u-boot)
