The warning was added by commit 3e49a866c9dc ("mm: Enforce
VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range.").

This indeed uses a special memory area at a fixed physical address,
but I don't see where the vm_struct comes from.

No idea here, but it seems unrelated to the first one.

Something is wrong with your address decoding, there are no line
numbers.
