Yes, I could add ioremap_nopost() to linux/io.h I did not do it because
linux/io.h, for whatever reason, does not seem to contain ioremap_*
prototypes; this does not mean we should not add it there but that
would look odd (with all others ioremap_* in asm/io.h), all I am
saying. This stuff requires some clean-up regardless, for the records.

As for the static inline, I did that and that did not make the
kbuild robot happy at all on some arches:

eg: openrisc

>> include/asm-generic/io.h:922:9: error: implicit declaration of
>> function 'ioremap_nocache' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
     return ioremap_nocache(offset, size);

I will have another stab at it since what you put forward makes sense,
I just have to find a way that works across arches.

Thanks !
