Sorry if I sounds like I am questioning what you are saying, I am not.
I understand the OMAP 3530 is an ARMv7. The point I was trying to make is
the ARM versions have a lot of back compatibility. It is the TI OMAP 3570
web page where they say this is an ARMv7 chip that says "Fully
Software-Compatible With C64x and ARM9". 

I don't have the ARMv7 AR Reference manual, and there are a lot of
details missing from the Cortex A8 Technical Manual, and the "ARMv5 ARM"
covers ARMv6 with the exception of the TrustZone, so I don't know how the
new TrustZone / security features are on by default in the ARMv7 and how
much one can bypass them.
