Subject: NTB: Remove _addr functions from ntb_hw_amd

From: Allen Hubbe <[email protected]>

commit 4f1b50c3e3082b31c94cee2b897bd9f5d0f3e7c8 upstream.

Kernel zero day testing warned about address space confusion. A virtual iomem address was used where a physical address is expected. The offending functions implement an optional part of the api, so they are removed. They can be added later, after testing.

Fixes a1b3695820aa490e58915d720a1438069813008b
