[PATCH v4 04/10] arch: introduce memremap()

[Dan Williams]

Existing users of ioremap_cache() are mapping memory that is known in
advance to not have i/o side effects.  These users are forced to cast
away the __iomem annotation, or otherwise neglect to fix the sparse
errors thrown when dereferencing pointers to this memory.  Provide
memremap() as a non __iomem annotated ioremap_*() in the case when
ioremap is otherwise a pointer to cacheable memory. Empirically,
ioremap_<cacheable-type>() call sites are seeking memory-like semantics
(e.g.  speculative reads, and prefetching permitted).

memremap() is a break from the ioremap implementation pattern of adding
a new memremap_<type>() for each mapping type and having silent
compatibility fall backs.  Instead, the implementation defines flags
that are passed to the central memremap() and if a mapping type is not
supported by an arch memremap returns NULL.

We introduce a memremap prototype as a trivial wrapper of
ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wt().  Later, once all ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt() usage has been removed from drivers we teach archs to
implement arch_memremap() with the ability to strictly enforce the
mapping type.
