This is wrong since ioread* is not the same read* on x86 and other
architectures that have native PCI PIO accessors, or that require
additional barriers for those.

You have to copy hi_lo_readq() here, and call ioread32 twice instead
of calling readl() twice. Same for iowrite64.

This has another problem: ioread64() is defined to access little-endian
registers, just like readq(). This means that instead of be64_to_cpu()
you need swab64() and always perform the byte swap, otherwise this
would be broken on big-endian architectures.
