If this fails then you will oops if you call either at91_ramc_read or
at91_ramc_write since they don't check if at91_ramc_base[id] is a valid
pointer. Either this function should panic, like the other at91_ioremap
functions, or the at91_ramc_read/write functions should check for a
valid pointer.
Nitpick: The id check should probably also be BUG() or WARN() since it
indicates a bug in the core AT91 code. pr_warn is likely to missed and
not reported by users. Since the value is int, the check should be:
if (id < 0 || id > 1)
Obviously the chance of this error happening are slim, but if you are
going to check and warn for it, it should be done properly :-).
