[PATCH RFC 6/9] arm: mm: Avoid ioremap_page_range() for non-secure mappings

[Daniel Thompson]

ioremap_page_range() cannot provide us memory with the the non-secure
section flag set unfortunately at present ioremap+MT_DEVICE_NS will
fallback to this function and spuriously return a virtual pointer to
what is effectively MT_DEVICE memory.

This patch makes the fallback to ioremap_page_range() ineffective; to
allocate MT_DEVICE_NS memory we must rely instead on the platform startup
code providing a suitable static mapping.
