[PATCH] powerpc/powermac: Use early_* IO variants in via_calibrate_decr

On a powermac platform, under the call path

  start_kernel
   time_init
    ppc_md.calibrate_decr (pmac_calibrate_decr)
     via_calibrate_decr

we run ioremap and iounmap. The unmap can enable interrupts
unexpectedly (cond_resched in vunmap_pmd_range), which is warned about
later in the boot sequence in start_kernel.

Use the early_* variants of these IO functions to prevent this.

The issue is pre-existing, but is surfaced by commit 721255b9826b
("genirq: Use a maple tree for interrupt descriptor management").
It's not clear to me why this causes it to surface.
