Can you provide a bit more context : like w/o this exit/munmap on 5.x 
kernels was crashing - with the actual stack trace.

This also needs to be CC <stable>

Bike shed: Can we call this PAGE_MASK_PHYS

Not a good idea as you already saw the kernel built bot complaining. 
Granted we have the old PAGE_SIZE cruft there, but that's not the 
precedent for adding more.

This is offset *within* a page so upper bits must not matter. In fact, 
with this a bogus offset like 0xFF_FFFFFFFF can turn into something 
weird such as 0xFF_00000000

This change is OK but feels weird nonetheless. ioremap is intended for 
actual IO regions and not just making making normal pages uncached. I 
know you tried the devmem trick to do this but I don't think that is a 
"production" way to render uncached pages in PAE region.
