I know that early_memunmap() == early_iounmap() in general. However,
I think that it is less confusing if use relevant functions in pairs
(i.e. early_memremap() with early_memunmap(), ...) than mix them up.
We have following choices here:
- leave early_iounmap() as is in drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c
(arch/x86/platform/efi/efi.c:early_iounmap() -> early_memunmap()
changes should be left as is),
- include asm/early_ioremap.h in arch/ia64/include/asm/io.h
(as I can see the same think is done for x86 and arm64).
I prefer second solution but I do not insist.
