Subject: [PATCH 2.6.39-rc5] ioremap: Delay sanity check until after a successful
 mapping

While tracking down the reason for an ioremap() failure I was distracted 
by the WARN_ONCE() in __ioremap_caller(). Can we move the sanity check 
later in the function until _after_ the mapping has been performed?
