[Xie Shaohui] Yes, should not use sizeof(int).

[Xie Shaohui] The original ioremap() did cover the entire structure, but the 
sysif_regs are not defined in dr_regs,
So regs of sysif_regs cannot be accessed as a member of a structure, current 
driver handle this by type casting, this did work in 32-bit, but in 64-bit, 
this is not safe. So I use ioremap() to cover it again.
