[ARM] 3070/2: Add __ioremap_pfn() API



Patch from Deepak Saxena

In working on adding 36-bit addressed supersection support to ioremap(),
I came to the conclusion that it would be far simpler to do so by just
splitting __ioremap() into a main external interface and adding an
__ioremap_pfn() function that takes a pfn + offset into the page that
__ioremap() can call. This way existing callers of __ioremap() won't have
to change their code and 36-bit systems will just call __ioremap_pfn()
and we will not have to deal with unsigned long long variables.

Note that __ioremap_pfn() should _NOT_ be called directly by drivers
but is reserved for use by arch_ioremap() implementations that map
32-bit resource regions into the real 36-bit address and then call
this new function.
