Subject: [PATCH 3/4] [Patch-next] ACPI, APEI Fix the return value(==NULL)
 of acpi_pre_map always.

acpi_pre_map() is used for remapping the physical address of I/O, so
it should be return NULL or remapped virtual address. The problem
is whether I/O remapping is successful or not, the function returns
NULL always.

In acpi_pre_map(), after the physical address is remapped sucessfully,
it will check whether the physical address has been added into acpi_iomaps
list again. If the physical address has beed added into acpi_iomaps,
the virtual address will be saved in vaddr. Otherwise, NULL be saved in
vaddr.

So if the physical address has never been remapped, the return value of
acpi_pre_map will be NULL always.

This patch fixed it and I confirmed it on x86_64 next-tree.
