#define readl(c)                ({ u32 __v = readl_relaxed(c); __iormb(); __v; })

is how it's now defined, and __iormb() is defined to be rmb() on ARMv7+,
which translates to a dmb.

writel() on the other hand is less straight forward.  It uses __iowmb()
which translates to a wmb() on ARMv7+, which is a dsb and an outer cache
sync operation.  This will fail in the decompressor code as there's no
outer cache support there.
