Hi Baoquan,
I am using a list here to store all the mapped addresses, and unmap them out of iounmap.

About the reason, please check the old mails. I cannot remember the detailed reasons.

Thanks
Zhenhua

Add some functions to copy the data from old kernel.
These functions are used to copy context tables and page tables.

To avoid calling iounmap between spin_lock_irqsave and spin_unlock_irqrestore,
use a link here, store the pointers , and then use iounmap to free them in
another place.

Hi Zhenhua,

I remember you mentioned iounmap will cause error inside
spin_lock_irqsave. Do you know why it happened now? And could you also
describe why avoid calling iounmap between
spin_lock_irqsave/unlock_irqsave  is needed here and what's the status
now?

I think other reviewer may want to know it too.

Thanks
Baoquan
