mmap(/dev/mem) causing sigbus

It seems that there is an issue with either mmap or mmap'ing /dev/mem on
sparc64.  A tool (mstflint) for flashing firmware for Mellanox
Infiniband HCA's is crashing on sparc64.  It mmap's /dev/mem and when it
accesses it, a bus error is generated.

Should this work?

Attached is a small test program to demonstrate.  Change BAR0 to
something in your PCI address space (grab an address from /proc/iomem).

# cat /proc/iomem
