[PATCH] ppc64: Extend ioremap/iounmap infrastructure
The patch below implements the ability to query outstanding imalloc regions
for a given virtual address range. (Imalloc is the allocator of virtual
space for ioremap.) The patch extends im_get_area() to allow a region
criterion of IM_REGION_SUPERSET. For a particular "superset" virtual
address and size passed into im_get_area(), the function returns the first
outstanding region that is contained within this superset region.
The patch also changes iounmap_explicit() to allow for the unmapping of all
regions that fit under a "superset".
This ability is necessary for dynamic (runtime) removal of pci host bridges
(PHBs). For a PHB removal, the platform specification (the RPA) requires
that all of its children slots already be dynamically removed. Each of
these slot-level removals has fractured the imalloc region assigned to the
PHB at boot. At PHB removal time, it is necessary to iounmap() the
remaining artifacts of the initial PHB region.
