I'm not very keen on having zillions of tiny files just to cope with the
lack of per-function stackprotector disable.  I don't see any code in
ioremap.c that would really benefit from stack-protector anyway; there
are no local arrays.

At least __phys_addr and friends aren't terribly closely related to
ioremap so it would at least make some sense.  Patch below.

More.  It would be a fairly arbitrary chunk of code to split out into a
separate file.

Will do.

Subject: [PATCH] x86: split __phys_addr out into separate file

Split __phys_addr out into its own file so we can disable
-fstack-protector in a fine-grained fashion.  Also it doesn't
have terribly much to do with the rest of ioremap.c.
