ACPI: Maintain a list of ACPI memory mapped I/O remappings
For memory mapped I/O (MMIO) remappings, add a list to maintain the remappings and augment the corresponding mapping and unmapping interface routines (acpi_os_map_memory() and acpi_os_unmap_memory()) to dynamically add to, and delete from, the list. The current ACPI I/O accessing methods - acpi_read() and acpi_write() - end up calling ioremap() when accessing MMIO. This prevents use of these methods within interrupt context (IRQ and/or NMI), since ioremap() may block to allocate memory. Maintaining a list of MMIO remappings enables accesses to such areas from within interrupt context provided they have been pre-mapped.
