Ah. This patch should come first, before making associated
code changes, and there would need to be an explanation
_why_ it is not a mandatory property. Also, some action
is taken in the previous patches if the property is not
there. That indicates that the driver is expected to
use some defaults if the property is indeed not provided,
and that expected default should be documented.

Ack.
I should have been more clear and explained that driver actually handles
the case that "intel,vm-map" does not exist (including an explicit comment
- "Incase intel,vm-map property is not defined ...") and that it is
actually optional.
