Could you take a look below regarding the I/O to I/O memory access?

if we access vaddr_iomem/vaddr we basically break the promise of
abstracting system and I/O memory. There is no point in receiving
struct iosys_map as argument and then break the abstraction.

so we basically want to copy from one place to the other on a word
boundary. And it may be

	a) I/O -> I/O or
	b) system -> I/O or
	c) I/O -> system

(b) and (c) should work, but AFAICS (a) is not possible with the current
iosys-map API. Not even the underlying APIs have that abstracted. Both
memcpy_fromio() and memcpy_toio() expect one of them to be RAM (system
memory)

I remember seeing people using a temporary in buffer in system memory
for proxying the copy. But maybe we need an abstraction for that?
Also adding Thomas Zimmermann here for that question.

and since this is a selftest testing the performance of the memcpy from
one memory region to the other, it would be good to have this test
executed to a) make sure it still works and b) record in the commit
message any possible slow down we are incurring.
