Oh, really it is, thanks.

But "no io memory" is not the excuse to not define the related dummy
function.

The drivers internal code has already check the related return value,
so it is the architecture's duty to 'tell' the driver whether support
io memory (e.g. define ioremap, but return NULL).

So all together, I recommend the fix like below
