Impact: build fix
Theodore Ts reported that the i915 driver needs these symbols:
ERROR: "pgprot_writecombine" [drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "is_io_mapping_possible" [drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko] undefined!

io_mapping_create_wc should take a resource_size_t parameter in place of
unsigned long. With unsigned long, there will be no way to map greater than 4GB
address in i386/32 bit.
On x86, greater than 4GB addresses cannot be mapped on i386 without PAE. Return
error for such a case.
Patch also adds a structure for io_mapping, that saves the base, size and
type on HAVE_ATOMIC_IOMAP archs, that can be used to verify the offset on
io_mapping_map calls.

In the absence of PAT, PAGE_KERNEL_WC ends up mapping to a memory type that
gets UC behavior even in the presence of a WC MTRR covering the area in
question. By swapping to PAGE_KERNEL_UC_MINUS, we can get the actual
behavior the caller wanted (WC if you can manage it, UC otherwise).
This recovers the 40% performance improvement of using WC in the DRM
to upload vertex data.

Impact: introduce new APIs, separate kmap code from CONFIG_HIGHMEM
This takes the code used for CONFIG_HIGHMEM memory mappings except that
it's designed for dynamic IO resource mapping.
These fixmaps are available even with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off.
