Add special hook for architecture to verify or setup addr, sizeI don't really like interfaces that mix error pointers and NULL pointer
or prot when ioremap() or iounmap(), which will make the generic
ioremap more useful.
arch_ioremap() return a pointer,
- IS_ERR means return an error
- NULL means continue to remap
- a non-NULL, non-IS_ERR pointer is directly returned
arch_iounmap() return a int value,
- 0 means continue to vunmap
- error code means skip vunmap and return directly

returns.
Would it be possible to have a special error code other than NULL
for the fallback case?
