Thank you for your comment.

Does the following patch include your comment? If O.K., I will separate
the patch from the series and send it for bug fix.

Looks sane to me.  It does now mean that the calling conventions for
some of the other firmware_map*() functions are different, but I think
that's OK since they're only used internally to memmap.c.

Thank you for reviewing my patch.
I'll send the patch.

Can I add "Reviewed-by: Dave Hansen" to the patch?
