MIPS has a copy of lib/iomap.c with minor alterations, none of which are
necessary given appropriate definitions of PIO_OFFSET, PIO_MASK &
PIO_RESERVED. Provide such definitions, select GENERIC_IOMAP & remove
arch/mips/lib/iomap.c to cut back on the needless duplication.
The one change this does make is to our mmio_{in,out}s[bwl] functions,
which began to deviate from their generic counterparts with commit
0845bb721e ("MIPS: iomap: Use __mem_{read,write}{b,w,l} for MMIO"). I
suspect that this commit was incorrect, and that the SEAD-3 platform
should have instead selected CONFIG_SWAP_IO_SPACE. Since the SEAD-3
platform code is now gone & the board is instead supported by the
generic platform (CONFIG_MIPS_GENERIC) which selects
CONFIG_SWAP_IO_SPACE anyway, this shouldn't be a problem any more.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
