Sorry, but I still don't follow this. The DT code doesn't use the fixmap,
does it? It looks like it maps the buffer ahead of time using
devm_ioremap_resource() and then the accessors don't use the fixmap
index at all, hence the horrible '(void)fixmap_idx;' cast which presumably
stops the compiler from complaining about an unused variable.
