Thanks for the patch but I'm a little skeptical about adding
ioremap()/iounmap() stubs that don't do anything useful and on top ofn
that would do so silently.

In the above discussion you said that TIMER_OF should depend on
HAS_IOMEM. In arch/s390/Kconfig HAS_IOMEM is set if and only if
CONFIG_PCI is set so that sounds to me like it would prevent the
undefined reference without the risk of someone trying to use io*map()
without CONFIG_PCI.

At the very least I think the functions should do a WARN_ONCE() but
then we have the same situation as discussed below with Linus making it
pretty clear that he prefers these cases to be compile time checked:
