OK, thanks.  The commit message should say something like "this is
RAM, not MMIO, so we should map it with memremap(), not ioremap()".
That's the part that determines whether the change is correct.

You can mention the encryption part, too, but it's definitely
secondary because the change has to make sense on its own, without
SME/SEV.

The following commits (from https://github.com/codomania/tip/branches)
all do basically the same thing so the changelogs (and summaries)
should all be basically the same:

  cb0d0d1eb0a6 x86: Change early_ioremap to early_memremap for BOOT data
  91acb68b8333 x86/pci: Use memremap when walking setup data
  4f687503e23f x86: Access the setup data through sysfs decrypted
  e90246b8c229 x86: Access the setup data through debugfs decrypted

I would collect them all together and move them to the beginning of
your series, since they don't depend on anything else.

Also, change "x86/pci: " to "x86/PCI" so it matches the previous
convention.
