The internal ttm_bo_util memcpy uses ioremap functionality, and while it probably might be possible to use it for copying in- and out of sglist represented io memory, using io_mem_reserve() / io_mem_free() callbacks, that would cause problems with fault(). Instead, implement a method mapping page-by-page using kmap_local() semantics. As an additional benefit we then avoid the occasional global TLB flushes of ioremap() and consuming ioremap space, elimination of a critical point of failure and with a slight change of semantics we could also push the memcpy out async for testing and async driver development purposes. A special linear iomem iterator is introduced internally to mimic the old ioremap behaviour for code-paths that can't immediately be ported over. This adds to the code size and should be considered a temporary solution. Looking at the code we have a lot of checks for iomap tagged pointers. Ideally we should extend the core memremap functions to also accept uncached memory and kmap_local functionality. Then we could strip a lot of code.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
