+/**
+ * DOC: ioremap() and ioremap_*() variants
+ *
+ * If you have an IOMMU your architecture is expected to have both ioremap()
+ * and iounmap() implemented otherwise the asm-generic helpers will provide a
+ * direct mapping.
+ *
+ * There are ioremap_*() call variants, if you have no IOMMU we naturally will
+ * default to direct mapping for all of them, you can override these defaults.
+ * If you have an IOMMU you are highly encouraged to provide your own
+ * ioremap variant implementation as there currently is no safe architecture
+ * agnostic default. To avoid possible improper behaviour default asm-generic
+ * ioremap_*() variants all return NULL when an IOMMU is available. If you've
+ * defined your own ioremap_*() variant you must then declare your own
+ * ioremap_*() variant as defined to itself to avoid the default NULL return.
