Just have to CC Arnd on this because I never feel I understand this
properly.
Normally you would do this so as to override the default virt_to_phys()
from include/asm-generic/io.h, but we do not seem to be using it here?
Further right below we are implementing phys_to_virt() with no
corresponding define, so in any case this needs to go or that one
needs a define.
That said they seem like a good candidate to replace with the
generic variant because the content is the same sans some debug
hacks that I doubt are still needed.
