[PATCH v6 net-next 01/10] misc: sram: add optional ioremap without write combining

From: Marcin Wojtas <mw at semihalf.com>

Some SRAM users may require non-bufferable access to the memory, which is
impossible, because devm_ioremap_wc() is used for setting sram->virt_base.

This commit adds optional flag 'no-memory-wc', which allow to choose remap
method, using DT property. Documentation is updated accordingly.
