Thank you Hiroyuki.
So many bugs in ioremap()...
Will try with those bugs fixed.
Thanks,

The problem seems to be fixed by the following patch. This is still
under testing. I will post the patch as v2 after testing.
Thanks,

Current x86 ioremap() doesn't handle physical address higher than
32-bit properly in X86_32 PAE mode. When physical address higher than
32-bit is passed to ioremap(), higher 32-bits in physical address is
cleared wrongly. Due to this bug, ioremap() can map wrong address to
linear address space.
In my case, 64-bit MMIO region was assigned to a PCI device (ioat
device) on my system. Because of the ioremap()'s bug, wrong physical
address (instead of MMIO region) was mapped to linear address space.
Because of this, loading ioatdma driver caused unexpected behavior
(kernel panic, kernel hangup, ...).

Why do you use u64 and not resource_size_t for those? That way this would not
be needlessly big for "real" 32 bit platforms.
Thank you for your comment. The reason was I found other code that uses
u64 for pfn in other code. But yes, I will change that.
Thanks,
