We want all iomem mmaps to consistently revoke ptes when the kernel takes over and CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM is enabled. This includes the pci bar mmaps available through procfs and sysfs, which currently do not revoke mappings. To prepare for this, move the code from the /dev/kmem driver to kernel/resource.c. During review Jason spotted that barriers are used somewhat inconsistently. Fix that up while we shuffle this code, since it doesn't have an actual impact at runtime. Otherwise no semantic and behavioural changes intended, just code extraction and adjusting comments and names.

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.
