Description

@thejpster

In the Armv8-M architecture, the NVIC supports up to 496 general-purpose interrupt lines. However, processor implementations may limit the maximum to a lower number, often 240 or 480. Cortex-M processors let system designers choose any number of general-purpose interrupt lines appropriate to their system, up to the specified limit. In Cortex-M processors that include the Mainline extension, system designers can choose the number of bits implemented in the programmable priority value for each exception.

We only allow up to 240 interrupts in this crate, but Armv8-M allows up to 496 (plus 16 exceptions to make 512 table vector entries in total).
