Somehow this series is missing a cover letter.

While you are touching all this "fun" can you also look into killing
__ioremap?  It seems to be a weird non-standard version of ioremap_prot
(probably predating ioremap_prot) that is missing a few lines of code
setting attributes that might not even be applicable for the two drivers
calling it.
ocm_init_node() [arch/powerpc/platforms/4xx/ocm.c] calls __ioremap() with _PAGE_EXEC set while ioremap_prot() clears _PAGE_EXEC
