when you have x= ioremap(y,size) isnt x like any other normal virtual
address accessed through page tables , so why cant
we use the normal kernel functions pgd_offset,pmd_offset,pte_offset to
convert x to a physical address in kernel mode ?
P.S : I know pgd_offset takes a mm_struct as parameter..but that apart..
