The comment in asm-x86/io.h says "we don't need a real ioremap on
Xen/x86", but I think we do need it for the IOMMU work on x86-64,
since the hypervisor will need to map the IOMMU's internal register
area for things like cache flushing. Is there a fundamental objection
to a real ioremap for x86?
 
 
 No, it got removed as it wasn't used, but it can easily be added back. 
It's particularly easy since we probably don't need iounmap().
