You can't use memcpy() on something else than memory.
For an ioremapped area, you have to use memcpy_toio()

Hi, Christophe
I am sorry that we are in some troubles for some unpredictable problems when we replay and haven't given you a quick reply.
I also want to ask does the phenomeon(use memcpy_toio when copy ioremap_address) only occurs in powerpc ? does any other
arch also has the same problem ? we are in persuit of asking why this phenomenon happened. Our linux kernel version is 4.4.
thanks very much.

It's not a problem ... it's a feature.
I have no idea whether the same kind of issue can happen on other
arches, sorry.
