      asm-generic: architecture independent readq/writeq for 32bit environment · 797a796a
      Hitoshi Mitake 提交于
      This provides unified readq()/writeq() helper functions for 32-bit
      drivers.
      
      For some cases, readq/writeq without atomicity is harmful, and order of
      io access has to be specified explicitly.  So in this patch, new two
      header files which contain non-atomic readq/writeq are added.
      
       - <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-lo-hi.h> provides non-atomic readq/
         writeq with the order of lower address -> higher address
      
       - <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-hi-lo.h> provides non-atomic readq/
         writeq with reversed order
      
      This allows us to remove some readq()s that were added drivers when the
      default non-atomic ones were removed in commit dbee8a0a ("x86:
      remove 32-bit versions of readq()/writeq()")
      
      The drivers which need readq/writeq but can do with the non-atomic ones
      must add the line:
      
        #include <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-lo-hi.h> /* or hi-lo.h */
      
      But this will be nop in 64-bit environments, and no other #ifdefs are
      required.  So I believe that this patch can solve the problem of
       1. driver-specific readq/writeq
       2. atomicity and order of io access
      
      This patch is tested with building allyesconfig and allmodconfig as
      ARCH=x86 and ARCH=i386 on top of tip/master.
