Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ia64, mm: add WB check for early_ioremap

From: "Li, Zhen-Hua" <zhen-hual@...com>

On ia64 system , the function early_ioremap returned to uncached memory without checking. This causes efi error and kernel failed in booting.
So I add a check to test whether memory has EFI_MEMORY_WB set.
And the function kern_mem_attribute can be called in early_ function.

See the document Documentation/ia64/aliasing.txt for more details.
