I was thinking about it, but rangeset doesn't allow attaching extra data
(fixmap index, or mapped address as you propose with ioremap()).
Changing all the places where mmio_ro_ranges is used will be a bit
tedious, but that isn't really a problem.

In all the cases this feature is used (for now), I do have a fixmap
anyway. So, I don't need to worry if I can call ioremap() at that boot
stage (I think it's okay in console_init_postirq(), but that may not
be obvious in other places).

That would work for the function parameters indeed, regardless of what's
really stored.

I don't think Xen cares about it when page is mapped R/W to the guest,
so why should it care when it's partially R/W only?

mfn is not supposed to change ever on the specific list element, and
IIUC, rangeset does locking itself. Am I missing something?
