Thanks for the pointer. But this has to be in 2 steps. First reserve the
virtual space and then map it. For the first part I think something like
this function will work:

void __init pci_reserve_io(void)
{
	struct vm_struct *vm;

	vm = early_alloc_aligned(sizeof(*vm), __alignof__(*vm));

	vm->addr = (void *)PCI_IO_VIRT_BASE;
	vm->size = SZ_1M;
	vm->phys_addr = 0;
	vm->flags = VM_IOREMAP | VM_ARM_STATIC_MAPPING;
	vm->flags |= VM_ARM_MTYPE(MT_DEVICE);
	vm->caller = pci_reserve_io;
	vm_area_add_early(vm++);
}

There's a big fat warning on vm_area_add_early from Nico to not use
unless you know what you're doing. I'll pretend I do...
