Yes, this patchset follows the model of ioremap_wc. This duplication
was introduced by 9216efafc52 "asm-generic/io.h: Reconcile I/O accessor
overrides", while the original ioremap_wc support changed
asm-generic/iomap.h (1526a756fba). As described in patch 07, some
architectures define ioremap_xxx() locally as well.

It is too risky to do everything in one short. I will look into the
duplication issue as a separate item after this patchset is settled.

Thanks,
