Not sure how we are meant to specify write through in drivers. Any ideas Ben?

No proper interface exposed, he'll have to do an #ifdef powerpc here or
such and use __ioremap with explicit page attributes. I have a hack to
do that automatically for memory covered by prefetchable PCI BARs when
mmap'ing from userland but not for kernel ioremap.

Ben.
