Euh ...

because all drivers for powerpc seems to be using of_iomap(), as on 
powerpc the HW is described by the bootloader in a OF device tree.
Today, of_iomap() is at least used in FSL SPI, FSL UART, SPI mpc52xx, 
UART mpc52xx, i2c-mpc, i2c-cpm, freescale ethernet drivers, etc ....

Is it not correct ?
