Every file should include the headers containing the prototypes for its global
functions (in this case ioremap_page_range()).

First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.
This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
getting them indirectly
Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Remove useless includes of linux/io.h, don't even try to build iomap_copy
on uml (it doesn't have readb() et.al., so...)

The existing implementation of ioremap_page_range(), which was taken
from i386, does this:
flush_cache_all();
/* modify page tables */
flush_tlb_all();
I think this is a bit defensive, so this patch changes the generic
implementation to do:
/* modify page tables */
flush_cache_vmap(start, end);
instead, which is similar to what vmalloc() does. This should still
be correct because we never modify existing PTEs. According to
James Bottomley:
The problem the flush_tlb_all() is trying to solve is to avoid stale tlb
entries in the ioremap area. We're just being conservative by flushing
on both map and unmap. Technically what vmalloc/vfree does (only flush
the tlb on unmap) is just fine because it means that the only tlb
entries in the remap area must belong to in-use mappings.

This patch adds a generic implementation of ioremap_page_range() in
lib/ioremap.c based on the i386 implementation. It differs from the
i386 version in the following ways:
* The PTE flags are passed as a pgprot_t argument and must be
determined up front by the arch-specific code. No additional
PTE flags are added.
* Uses set_pte_at() instead of set_pte()
