From: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx>
Although the temporary boot-time ACPI table mappings
were set up with CPU caching enabled, the permanent table
mappings and AML run-time region memory accesses were
set up with ioremap(), which on x86 is a synonym for
ioremap_nocache().
Changing this to ioremap_cache() improves performance as
seen when accessing the tables via acpidump,
or /sys/firmware/acpi/tables. It should also improve
AML run-time performance.
No change on ia64.
