Oh, yes, really the same.

Excuse me, I use "grep -rn ioremap *" under "include/" and "arch/um/"
directory, but can not find the related definition for 'ioremap'.

Is there another declaration or definition way which I don't know ?
(maybe it is).

For our case, the ".config" file does not define 'CONFIG_HAS_IOMEM', can
I assume it means "CONFIG_HAS_IOMEM=n" ?
