Ah, sounds like it just selects between two different kinds
of address interleaving.  Typically, one is best for random
access, and the other is best for accessing big blocks of
data.

In the (E)MRS regs, you only need to set things like CL, AL,
and termination settings.  It's quite important to get those
right of course ;-)
