It might do, depending upon platform. It'll typically get passed in by the boardinfo (or equivalent) structure for a given architecture - but that's only a general notional idea and doesn't always translate in to reality. Give us some details. Assuming it's ok then your idea of using ioremap with that range is a sane way of accessing it. ...then again, you might be asking whether the kernel's virtual memory map is being defined by the bootloader or something like that - so again, you need to clarify.
