Bit 22 in some LD/ST instructions (Cortex-A7)

I wonder if the bit 22 has some function in instructions like LDRH, STRH, LDRSBT, LDRD, ... (bits 27, 26, 25 = 0, 0, 0)?

22
c c c c 0 0 0 0 U 1 1 0 n n n n t t t t x x x x 1 0 1 1 x x x x	STRHT<c> <Rt>,[<Rn>],{,#+/-<imm8>} A1 A8.8.219
c c c c 0 0 0 0 U 1 1 1 n n n n t t t t x x x x 1 0 1 1 x x x x	LDRHT<c> <Rt>,[<Rn>],{,#+/-<imm8>} A1 A8.8.83
c c c c 0 0 0 0 U 1 1 1 n n n n t t t t x x x x 1 1 0 1 x x x x	LDRSBT<c> <Rt>,[<Rn>],{,#+/-<imm8>} A1 A8.8.87

In some instructions, like LDR, STR, LDRB (bits 27, 26, 25 = 0, 1, 1) , I understand, it chooses between byte and word access.
