 | `BandedMatrices.MemoryLayout(A)` | Override to get banded lazy linear algebra, e.g. `y .= Mul(A,x)` |
 | `BandedMatrices.bandeddata(A)` | Override to return a matrix of the entries in BLAS format. Required if `MemoryLayout(A)` returns `BandedColumnMajor` |

 Note that certain `SubArray`s of `BandedMatrix` are also banded matrices.
 The banded matrix interface is implemented for such `SubArray`s to take advantage of this.
