lib/ioremap: ensure phys_addr actually corresponds to a physical address
The current ioremap() code uses a phys_addr variable at each level of page table, which is confusingly offset by subtracting the base virtual address being mapped so that adding the current virtual address back on when iterating through the page table entries gives back the corresponding physical address. This is fairly confusing and results in all users of phys_addr having to add the current virtual address back on. Instead, this patch just updates phys_addr when iterating over the page table entries, ensuring that it's always up-to-date and doesn't require explicit offsetting.
