Absolutely. It belongs in mm/vmalloc.c as its a kernel virtual range.
But what is the rationale of changing the name
ioremap_page_range is a generic function to create a kernel virtual
mapping, move it to mm/vmalloc.c and rename it vmap_range.
For clarity with this move, also:
- Rename vunmap_page_range (vmap_range's inverse) to vunmap_range.
- Rename vmap_page_range (which takes a page array) to vmap_pages.
