ioremap: Delay sanity check until after a successful mapping
While tracking down the reason for an ioremap() failure I was distracted by the WARN_ONCE() in __ioremap_caller(). Performing a WARN_ONCE() sanity check before the mapping is successful seems pointless if the caller sends bad values. A case in point is when the BIOS provides erroneous screen_info values causing vesafb_probe() to request an outrageuous size. The WARN_ONCE is then wasted on bogosity. Move the warning to a point where the mapping has been successfully allocated.
