Ensure that the ISA/PCI IO space accessors are properly ordered on
ARMv6+ architectures.  These should always be ordered with respect to
all other accesses.

This also fixes __iormb() and __iowmb() not being visible to ioread/
iowrite if a platform defines its own MMIO accessors.

We don't need to repeat the same definitions of the ioremap*(),
once in terms of __arch_ioremap() and again in terms of __arm_ioremap().
Instead, if the platform hasn't provided an __arch_ioremap, define
this to be __arm_ioremap, and only define the ioremap*() set using
__arch_ioremap.

Defining iounmap() with arguments prevents it from being used as a
function pointer, causing platforms to work around this.  Instead,
define it to be a simple macro.

Do the same for __arch_io(re|un)map too.

There are very few legitimate use cases, if any, for directly accessing
system RAM through /dev/mem.  So let's mimic what they do on x86 and
forbid it when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is turned on.

The ioread/iowrite accessors also need barriers as they're used in
place of readl/writel et.al. in portable drivers.  Create __iormb()
and __iowmb() which are conditionally defined to be barriers dependent
on ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE, and always use these macros in the accessors.

<title>ARM: 6273/1: Add barriers to the I/O accessors if ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE</title>

<content type='text'>
When the coherent DMA buffers are mapped as Normal Non-cacheable
(ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE enabled), buffer accesses are no longer ordered
with Device memory accesses causing failures in device drivers that do
not use the mandatory memory barriers before starting a DMA transfer.
LKML discussions led to the conclusion that such barriers have to be
added to the I/O accessors:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/683509/focus=686153
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/46414
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/5250

This patch introduces a wmb() barrier to the write*() I/O accessors to
handle the situations where Normal Non-cacheable writes are still in the
processor (or L2 cache controller) write buffer before a DMA transfer
command is issued. For the read*() accessors, a rmb() is introduced
after the I/O to avoid speculative loads where the driver polls for a
DMA transfer ready bit.

This patch introduces readl*_relaxed()/write*_relaxed() as the main I/O
accessors (when __mem_pci is defined). The standard read*()/write*()
macros are now based on the relaxed accessors.

This patch is in preparation for a subsequent patch which adds barriers
to the I/O accessors.

This allows the procfs vmallocinfo file to show who created the ioremap
regions.  Note: __builtin_return_address(0) doesn't do what's expected
if its used in an inline function, so we leave __arm_ioremap callers
in such places alone.

As of the previous commit, MT_DEVICE_IXP2000 encodes to the same
PTE bit encoding as MT_DEVICE, so it's now redundant.  Convert
MT_DEVICE_IXP2000 to use MT_DEVICE instead, and remove its aliases.
