/dev/mem: add a devmem kernel parameter to activate the device

For security reasons, some configuration needs to run without /dev/mem
but on some occasions, to debug HW for instance, it's still useful to
be able to reboot the system with access to physical memory.

Add a kernel parameter which activates the /dev/mem device only when
'mem.devmem' is enabled.

mips: provide unxlate_dev_mem_ptr() in asm/io.h

The unxlate_dev_mem_ptr() function has no prototype on the mips
architecture, which does not include asm-generic/io.h, so gcc warns
about the __weak definition:

drivers/char/mem.c:94:29: error: no previous prototype for 'unxlate_dev_mem_ptr' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

Since everyone else already gets the generic definition or has a custom
one, there is not really much point in having a __weak version as well.

Remove this one, and instead add a trivial macro to the mips header.
Once we convert mips to use the asm-generic header, this can go away
again.
