Happenly and unfortunately we are using the memory space out of the
control from the kernel. We have 2GB memory on the board and only 64(or 32) MB
is reserved for the kernel. The rest large space is for the data buffering or
LUT use. In my question, the LUT memory is located in the rest part rather than
the kernel memory area.
Any more suggestion on how to mmap this LUT area? Any idea will be
valuable for a beginner like me. Thanks in advance.

I have a similar setup where the upper 64MB are reserved for hardware. The
mmap implementation in my device driver works just fine using
io_remap_page_range().
