I think this is not required. We are having very gross setup_immap
function, where just using global area pointer - this should be replaced
with parent node traverse to figure out proper immr reg.

I will likely have a look at this problem. Additionally, I must say what we are having
is unpleasant enough, and EXPORT_...ing global memmapped pointers, we'll open the way to ugly
hacks which nobody want to. Let's cure the disease,   not its effects.
