mmap of uio devices does not seem to work without further
nommu-specific support, but interrupt handling already works, and
userspace drivers for nommu systems can simply use physical mmio
addresses from userspace directly anyway without mmap.

I don't particularly expect this to be accepted upstream as-is, but
since we're actually trying to use the UIO subsystem on nommu (J2),
I'd like to start a discussion of what an acceptable patch would
entail.

The uio_pdrv_genirq driver was tested on J2 with this patch and
interrupt handling works as expected.
