commit 024591f9a6e0164ec23301784d1e6d8f6cacbe59 upstream.

The semantics of pfn_valid() is to check presence of the memory map for a
PFN and not whether a PFN is in RAM. The memory map may be present for a
hole in the physical memory and if such hole corresponds to an MMIO range,
__arm_ioremap_pfn_caller() will produce a WARN() and fail:

Use memblock_is_map_memory() instead of pfn_valid() to check if a PFN is in
RAM or not.
