Our server productions (e.g. Loongson-3D6000/3E6000) can have multiple
nodes in one package and SMC mailboxes are also per-node. However, IOCSR
read/write can only perform on the current node, while sometimes we want
to perform on other nodes (e.g. when switch governor, the get and target
callbacks are not run on target core). So replace IOCSR read/write with
MMIO ones.

cpu_number_map() is undefined when CONFIG_SMP=n. Wouldn't that result in
a build failure?

Please ignore this comments if you do not think it is worth addressing:

A separate issue, it seems that DVFS and Boost feature is set in
loongson3_cpufreq_probe(), what if about on other nodes (non-boot cpu
node) and what if cpu hotplug?

static int loongson3_cpufreq_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
int i, ret;

for (i = 0; i < MAX_PACKAGES; i++) {
ret = devm_mutex_init(&pdev->dev, &cpufreq_mutex[i]);
if (ret)
return ret;
}

ret = do_service_request(0, 0, CMD_GET_VERSION, 0, 0);
if (ret <= 0)
return -EPERM;

ret = do_service_request(FEATURE_DVFS, 0, CMD_SET_FEATURE,
FEATURE_DVFS_ENABLE | FEATURE_DVFS_BOOST, 0);
if (ret < 0)
return -EPERM;

......

}
