Sorry, I just don't know. Looking at the documentation for IntOnAgeOut,
I see it says that for an ATU entry to trigger an age out interrupt, the
port it's associated with must have IntOnAgeOut set.
But your locked ATU entries aren't associated with any port, they have
DPV=0, right? So will they never trigger any age out interrupt according
to this? I'm not clear.
