What about using devm_request_and_ioremap() instead, in order to get
automatic unmap on error and in the ->remove() path?

But maybe it won't work because this memory range is claimed both by
the MDIO driver and the Ethernet driver itself. In that case, you could
use devm_ioremap().

Best regards,

Thomas
