OEMIsFlashAddr

This function determines whether the address provided lies in a platform's flash memory or RAM address range. Based on the results of this call, the OS image being downloaded may be destined for flash memory and thus may need to be handled differently, such as providing a RAM-based file cache area to support downloading while a flash memory update takes place.
