Would that persist a full bus reset - if we e.g. shut down MMNoC
after the display stack is turned off in preparation for a power
collapse, would we have to reprogram it?

Another thing is, do we know "how persistent" the QoS settings are?
What could reset them? Would a bandwidth request for a node that
belongs to the same path do so?
