It might make sense to actually enable it for BCM63XX.

This needs further explanation. Why not just use __raw_writel() and
__raw_readl() unconditionally ? Also, is it known for sure that,
say, bmips_be_defconfig otherwise uses the wrong endianness
(vs. bmips_stb_defconfig which is a little endian configuration) ?
