   I tried first things like above and got segfaults.  AFAICS lina B2000000   
   corresponds to 0x3000000 in device space, so 0x03022000 corresponds to   
   B2022000.  It seems that lina did not map block between 0x1000000   
   and 0x3000000, in this block that are 'ap_mailbox' and 'ap_system_ctrl',   
   it is probably not wise to mess with them from user space.

   1000000 B2022000 L!   
    OK   
   0 B2022000 L!   
    OK   
      
   blinks the LED.  I tried and 64-bit access works too, but it reads   
   or writes also the second register, so L! and L@ are simpler to use.   
      
   I still need to check which GPIO-s are actually usable, there is   
   4*32 = 128 logical lines, but the 64-Mb chip has only 68 pins.   
      
   There are several control registers deciding what pins do:   
   PINMUX, RTCSYS_GPIO and control registers for GPIO device.   
   LED was configured for GPIO output by bundled software, so   
   it was enough to write to the data port.
