Hmm, this is quite a bit of churn, and doesn't make the interface lot
more obvious.

I guess it's enough to get the pmem related bits going, but I'd really
prefer defining the ioremap* prototype in linux/io.h and requiring
and out of line implementation in the architectures, it's not like
it's a fast path.  And to avoid the ifdef mess make it something like:

void __iomem *ioremap_flags(resource_size_t offset, unsigned long size,
			unsigned long prot_val, unsigned flags);

static inline void __iomem *ioremap(resource_size_t offset, unsigned long size)
{
	return ioremap_flags(offset, size, 0, 0);
}

static inline void __iomem *ioremap_prot(resource_size_t offset,
		unsigned long size, unsigned long prot_val)
{
	return ioremap_flags(offset, size, prot_val, 0);
}

static inline void __iomem *ioremap_nocache(resource_size_t offset,
		unsigned long size)
{
	return ioremap_flags(offset, size, 0, IOREMAP_NOCACHE);
}

static inline void __iomem *ioremap_cache(resource_size_t offset,
		unsigned long size)
{
	return ioremap_flags(offset, size, 0, IOREMAP_CACHE);
}

static inline void __iomem *ioremap_uc(resource_size_t offset,
		unsigned long size)
{
	return ioremap_flags(offset, size, 0, IOREMAP_UC);
}

static inline void __iomem *ioremap_wc(resource_size_t offset,
		unsigned long size)
{
	return ioremap_flags(offset, size, 0, IOREMAP_WC);
}

static inline void __iomem *ioremap_wt(resource_size_t offset,
		unsigned long size)
{
	return ioremap_flags(offset, size, 0, IOREMAP_WT);
}

With all wrappers but ioremap() itself deprecated in the long run.

Besides following the one API one prototype guideline this gives
us one proper entry point for all the variants.  Additionally
it can reject non-supported caching modes at run time, e.g. because
different hardware may or may not support it.  Additionally it
avoids the need for all these HAVE_IOREMAP_FOO defines, which need
constant updating.
