Yes, indeed.
I'd say: remove the naked stuff, and let the compiler do the prologue/epilogue itself (or inline it for that matter). And don't force pointers and counter into particular registers. This way r0-r3 could be used as temporaries since they're probably already clobbered by the call to kmap_atomic() anyway. That is likely to be better than forcing ip/lr as temporaryes.
