Defer invocation of the iomem_get_mapping() to the sysfs open callback
so that it can be executed as needed when the binary sysfs object has
been accessed.
To do that, convert the "mapping" member of the struct bin_attribute
from a pointer to the struct address_space into a function pointer with
a signature that requires the same return type, and then updates the
sysfs_kf_bin_open() to invoke provided function should the function
pointer be valid.
Thus, this change removes the need for the fs_initcalls to complete
before any other sub-system that uses the iomem_get_mapping() would be
able to invoke it safely without leading to a failure and an Oops
related to an invalid iomem_get_mapping() access.
