Add missing __iomem annotation to address sparse warning. Caller is expected
to pass an __iomem annotated pointer to this function. The current usages
send a 64bytes command descriptor to an MMIO location (portal) on a
device for consumption.

Also, from the comment in movdir64b(), which also applies to enqcmds(),
@__dst must be supplied as an lvalue because this tells the compiler what
the object is (its size) the instruction accesses. I.e., not the pointers
but what they point to, thus the deref'ing '*'."
