I don't really like the idea of keeping this "Last" bit around, because
it doesn't have much to do with the state of a redistributor, and has
more to do with its position in the region.

What is wrong with the current approach of dynamically computing the
Last bit? If you have multiple regions, all you need to know is which
region this redistributor belongs to. From that point (and assuming you
know how many redistributors have been instantiated in that region, you
can know whether the Last bit is set or not.

One of the issue is that the current code works in term of "target cpu",
while we really want is to use the addr parameter to work out if the
Last bit is set or not. I'd be a lot more confident if we emulate it
like that (which is how the HW would generate it too).

What do you think?
