So it is.  However, the ioremap fix is wrong.

        } else {
                paddr = memblock_alloc(size, PAGE_SIZE);
        }

        memblock_free(paddr, size);
        memblock_remove(paddr, size);

Didn't I say that such blocks were supposed to be aligned to a 2MB
boundary - and the size also so aligned?

It at least needs to be 1MB as that's the section size.
