Architecture members and driver members really have different tastes,
they are different roles. It really need additional discussion.
For me, I only want to change devm_io*map*, not touch so much.
Welcome any other members' idea or suggestions.

In latest gcc and binutils, can compile score cross compiler
successfully for building kernel (but I am not quite sure whether the
compiling result are really OK, but I guess so).
And next (maybe after finish allmodconfig for microblaze), I shall try
to let uml pass allmodconfig for linux-next tree.
Thanks.
