[PATCH] x86/mm: Add warning to ioremap() for conflicting cache type

[Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hpe.com>]

On x86, ioremap() and remap_pfn_range() fail on conflicting cache
type of an alias mapping request only if the case is not allowed
by the rule set in is_new_memtype_allowed(). While this exemption
is necessary for remap_pfn_range() called for /dev/mem mappings,
it is not necessary for ioremap(). Drivers should never call
ioremap() with a conflicting cache type. This exemption handling
may hide possible bugs in drivers.

Add a warning message to ioremap() when a conflicting cache type
is allowed by is_new_memtype_allowed(). This helps us identify
such usages in drivers.

There is no change in the behavior.
