xen: replace xen_remap() with memremap()
xen_remap() is used to establish mappings for frames not under direct control of the kernel: for Xenstore and console ring pages, and for grant pages of non-PV guests. Today xen_remap() is defined to use ioremap() on x86 (doing uncached mappings), and ioremap_cache() on Arm (doing cached mappings). Uncached mappings for those use cases are bad for performance, so they should be avoided if possible. As all use cases of xen_remap() don't require uncached mappings (the mapped area is always physical RAM), a mapping using the standard WB cache mode is fine. As sparse is flagging some of the xen_remap() use cases to be not appropriate for iomem(), as the result is not annotated with the __iomem modifier, eliminate xen_remap() completely and replace all use cases with memremap() specifying the MEMREMAP_WB caching mode. xen_unmap() can be replaced with memunmap().
