[PATCH 0/4] generic early_ioremap support

This patch series takes the common bits from the x86 early ioremap
implementation and creates a generic library which may be used by
other architectures. The early ioremap interfaces are intended for
situations where boot code needs to make temporary virtual mappings
before the normal ioremap interfaces are available. Typically, this
means before paging_init() has run.

These patches are layered on top of generic fixmap patches which
have been discussed here:
