      x86: Add two helper macros for fixed address mapping · 5a47c7da
      Feng Tang authored
      Sometimes fixmap will be used to map an physical address which
      is not PAGE align, so to use it we need first map it and then
      add the address offset to the mapped fixed address. These 2 new
      helpers are suggested by Ingo Molnar to make the process
      simpler.
      
      For a physicall address like "phys", a directly usable virtual
      address can be get by
      	virt = (void *)set_fixmap_offset(fixed_idx, phys);
      or
      	virt = (void *)set_fixmap_offset_nocache(fixed_idx, phys);
      (depends on whether the physical address is cachable or not).
