Thanks for reviewing. Will break the line.

Seems __weak symbol is not suggested any more in kernel. Please see
below thread.

Do you mean changing it like this? It's fine to me if I get it
correctly.

	ioaddr = arch_ioremap(phys_addr, size, prot);
	if (IS_ERR(ioaddr))
		return NULL;
	if (ioaddr)
		return ioaddr;
