The iram allocator isn't useful taken alone, no? So I suggest to make
it

I'd prefer include/mach/iram.h here

I suggest to add an #include to assert ENOMEM is #defined.

please remove the trailing newline. I'd add some new lines around the
cpp lines, though.

Why do you need linux/module.h? Maybe linux/init.h is enough?

This can simply go, can't it?

I assume it doesn't make any difference for gcc, but using

static void __iomem *iram_virt_base

seems to be the more usual form.

Can you make this a static inline please?

if iram_virt_base is __iomem, the return value of iram_alloc should be
__iomem, too, no?

if (!iram_pool)
...

These two can fail, too.

iram_init isn't called yet. I assume calls to it should be added to the
cpu init routines (later)?
