Subject: sh: mm: set VM_IOREMAP flag to the vmalloc area
Date: Mon, 6 Feb 2023 16:40:20 +0800

Currently, for vmalloc areas with flag VM_IOREMAP set, except of the
specific alignment clamping in __get_vm_area_node(), they will be

1) Shown as ioremap in /proc/vmallocinfo;

2) Ignored by /proc/kcore reading via vread()

So for the ioremap in __sq_remap() of sh, we should set VM_IOREMAP in flag
to make it handled correctly as above.
