Good idea. It needs a fallback in case the ioremap_np() fails on most
architectures, but that sounds easy enough.

Since pci_remap_cfgspace() only has custom implementations, it sounds like
we can actually make the generic implementation unconditional in the end,
but that requires adding ioremap_np() on 32-bit as well, and I would keep
that separate from this series.
