According to Arnd, any remaining possible issues will be addressed by
changing the implementation of readl/writel on ARM.  It doesn't look as
though the ehci files need anything else done.

As far as I can tell, the other structures in ehci.h have 
((aligned(32)) simply in order to save space, since there can be large 
numbers of these structures allocated.  That doesn't apply to the 
structures in ehci_def.h; there will only be one of each.
