You won't need this with Nico's vmalloc.h clean-up series. It does
exactly this but generically for all platforms.

Ok. Thanks for your suggestion. I will move to using Nico's patches.

From Nico's reply to his pull request of vmalloc cleanup series, it
looks like that pull request has been withdrawn (hope I am not missing
anything here).

I'm just postponing it because this depends on a large cleanup in the 
OMAP code which is being pushed to mainline for the next merge window.

Without Nico's series, and gic dt support for exynos4 support 
requiring this patch, all other workarounds to replace this patch does 
not seem be correct.

So is it acceptable to retain this patch and later rework/drop the
exynos4 specific ioremap along with Nico's vmalloc patch series when
it is merged.

I would guess so.  But please CC me on those patches so I know what to 
look for when rebasing my series.
