v1: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg145939.html

This patchset makes it possible to allocate MMIO ranges that are between
the two RAM chunks on the Wii, MEM1 and MEM2, not only with ioremap
(which previously worked through a hack) but also with kernel/resource.c.

Changes in v2:
- I added back the p < virt_to_phys(high_memory) check in
  __ioremap_caller because high memory should be allocatable through
  ioremap
- I expanded the commit messages a bit
