Geert is right here. If it is a physical address, it should be
phys_addr_t.
While generally true, for the DT specific code I think it should be a
fixed u64. The size of the address is defined by the FDT, not the
kernel. It is very likely we could have a FDT that specifies addresses
in 64-bit values, but then we boot a kernel is compiled for !LPAE.
phys_addr_t is currently sized based on LPAE setting.
If your kernel is 32bit without PAE and your DTB address is >32ibt than
you can't handle it. If you don't notice this in your dt code than you
remap the wrong memory ioremap().
