[IA64] always map VGA framebuffer UC, even if it supports WB
EFI on some machines, e.g., Intel Tiger, reports that the VGA framebuffer supports WB access. ioremap() prefers WB when possible, so it can work when mapping main memory. But it doesn't make sense to map a framebuffer WB, because the driver doesn't flush explicitly, so updates won't make it to the device immediately. This is due to Zou Nan hai <nanhai.zou@intel.com>. More extensive fix that adds a "size" argument coming soon. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Cc: "Antonino A.
