[PATCH] mm/ioremap: remove volatile keyword in iounmap function

[PATCH] mm/ioremap: remove volatile keyword in iounmap function

[Zhiyuan Dai]

Like volatile, the kernel primitives which make concurrent
access to data safe (spinlocks, mutexes, memory barriers,
etc.) are designed to prevent unwanted optimization.

If they are being used properly, there will be no need to
use volatile as well.  If volatile is still necessary,
there is almost certainly a bug in the code somewhere.
In properly-written kernel code, volatile can only serve
to slow things down.
