Sorry I missed this, I thought it was just part of the rest of this 
patch set.  That said, I'm not actually sure this is a critical fix: 
sure it's a performance problem, and if some driver is expecting 
ioremap_cache() to go fast then possibly a pretty big one, but the only 
Svpmbt hardware that exists is the D1 and that was just supported this 
release so it's not a regression.  Maybe that's a bit pedantic, but all 
this travel has kind of made things a mess and I'm trying to make sure 
nothing goes off the rails.

Probably a pointless distinction as it'll just get backported anyway, 
but I'm going to hold off on this for now -- it generally looks OK, but 
I don't get back until this weekend and I'm super tired so I'm trying to 
avoid screwing anything up.
