Hmmm ... almost sounds to me like blaming the messenger. e7cd190385d1 ("arm64:
mark reserved memblock regions explicitly in iomem") starts using a function
in acpi_os_ioremap() which is not exported. On top of that, memblock_is_memory()
is declared as __init_memblock, which makes me really uncomfortable.
If acpi_os_ioremap() must not be used by modules, and possibly only during
early (?) initialization, maybe its declaration should state those limitations ?

Thanks,
