Thank you for your feedback Arnd. In regards to the filename, etc. I went with the first route and created a new file called io_copy.c. Although, I'm not sure if it's a good idea to create yet another file that serves a limited purpose. But I'm a bit afraid to add the functions to iomap_copy.c because there is no common consus in the architecture code about memcpy_{from,to}io. Some specify it with _memcpy_xx, some directly with memcpy_xx, and another bunch uses __memcpy_xx. So, if we want to merge it with iomap_copy.c, I would need to export the __memcpy_xx symbols for all architectures that don't want to use the "generic" memcpy_xx functions for now or rename their given implementation to __memcpy_xx, right? But if you think it's better to merge the two, I will have another look and modify the code for all remaining architectures as well.
