I think having this globally visible is the reason you are running
into the mismatched prototypes. The patches to change the architecture
specific implementations are all good, but I would instead add
#ifdef checks around the prototypes the same way you do for the
implementation, to make the series bisectible and shorter.

 include/asm-generic/io.h |  58 ++----------------
 lib/iomap_copy.c         | 127 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Along the same lines, I would change lib/Makefile to build
this file unconditionally even on architectures that don't
set CONFIG_HAS_IOMEM. Again, strengthening the driver dependencies
is good, but it feels like a distraction here when we just need the
common implementation to be available.
