Indeed.

In addition one AArch64 system which uses u-boot and which has concrete
instructions is the APM X-Gene/Mustang:
    http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_with_Virtualization_Extensions/APMXGeneMustang
which would likely be helpful. There are other ARMv7 systems linked from
the main page which would have other examples, but for 32-bit.
