Get rid of private immrbar_virt_to_phys() routine and
use generic iopa().
Nack. iopa() isn't that generic, shouldn't we really be using the dma 
mapping API here?
I'm having a hard time understanding what's wrong with iopa().  Is it because 
it's a 32-bit only function?  The memory has already been mapped with ioremap(), 
so why would we want to map it again?
