[parisc-linux] ohci1394 and ioremap()

In case this issue is unknown, when ohci1394_pci_probe() calls
ioremap() a notice is printed that ioremap should not be used for
non-cacheable memory regions. Changing ioremap() to ioremap_nocache()
removes the message; both versions appear to be functional. This is
with kernel 2.6.16-pa11 on a B1000/785.

According to previous threads, it sounds like a more correct solution
abstracts the ioremap call using the pci_iomap API:

I no longer have the firewire card, and so can't comment much further, but
wanted to mention the above just in case!
