Dave Jiang 6ae58d8713 x86/asm: Annotate movdir64b()'s dst argument with __iomem 
Add a missing __iomem annotation to address a sparse warning. The caller
is expected to pass an __iomem annotated pointer to this function. The
current usages send a 64-bytes command descriptor to an MMIO location
(portal) on a device for consumption. When future usages for the
MOVDIR64B instruction warrant a separate variant of a memory to memory
operation, the argument annotation can be revisited.

Also, from the comment in movdir64b() @__dst must be supplied as an
lvalue because this tells the compiler what the object is (its size) the
instruction accesses. I.e., not the pointers but what they point to,
thus the deref'ing '*'."

The actual sparse warning is:

README 

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.

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.
