It sounds OK to me, but I don't know why the other architectures (e.g.
arm, powerpc, x86) put them into ".c".

iomem_is_exclusive() and page_is_ram() are all extern functions, so for
me, devmem_is_allowed() is shot enough to be as inline function.

How about "static inline int devmem_is_allowed(unsigned long pfn)"?
