That's because ARM (at least the kernel) doesn't allow an IO map:

arch/arm/kernel/bios32.c
------------------------
618 int pci_mmap_page_range(struct pci_dev *dev, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
619                         enum pci_mmap_state mmap_state, int write_combine)
620 {
621         if (mmap_state == pci_mmap_io)
622                 return -EINVAL;

And with a quick glimpse of powerpc, I see no such limitation. Hence,
this peice of code may work only on Powerpc platform (and maybe a few
others we don't care).

So, apparently, this will not work for ARM.
