On a powermac platform, under the call path

  start_kernel
   time_init
    ppc_md.calibrate_decr (pmac_calibrate_decr)
     via_calibrate_decr

we run ioremap and iounmap. The unmap can enable interrupts
unexpectedly (cond_resched in vunmap_pmd_range), which is warned about
later in the boot sequence in start_kernel.

Use the early_* variants of these IO functions to prevent this.

The issue is pre-existing, but is surfaced by commit 721255b9826b
("genirq: Use a maple tree for interrupt descriptor management").
It's not clear to me why this causes it to surface.

From the thread chain in [1], it looks like the maple tree
implementation just has different allocation behaviour, which follows a
pre-existing code path to kmem_cache_alloc_bulk(), which
unconditionally enables interrupts.

(thanks Jordan Niethe for finding this thread)

That was a bug that was fixed before the series was merged.

See:
  f5451547b831 ("mm, slab/slub: Ensure kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() is available early")


It looks like the trigger here is that the maple tree code uses
call_rcu() in ma_free_rcu(), and call_rcu() can cause TIF_NEED_RESCHED
to be set, which causes cond_resched() to actually reschedule, enabling
interrupts.

cheers
