This is a type mismatch, the argument to any readl/writel variant should be
an __iomem pointer, so best make the definition above

#define CLPS7111_VIRT_BASE	(void __iomem *)(0xff000000)

It would also be better to use the non-raw variants of the accessors, which
are generally safer to use, e.g. in combination with DMA.

Of course, the best solution would be to not have any of these macros and
instead do an ioremap of a resource that gets passed as part of the
platform device. You don't have to do that change now though, that can be
a cleanup for another time, but you should do it right when you add new
drivers.
