------------------------------------------------------
Subject: fix bogon in /dev/mem mmap'ing on nommu
From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

While digging through my MAP_FIXED changes, I found that rather obvious
bug in /dev/mem mmap implementation for nommu archs. get_unmapped_area()
is expected to return an address, not a pfn.
