This patch uses the optimized ioresource lookup, "region_is_ram", for
the ioremap function. If the region is not found, it falls back to the
"page_is_ram" function. If it is found and it is RAM, then the usual
warning message is issued, and the ioremap operation is aborted.
Otherwise, the ioremap operation continues.
