Moan: usage of __iormb() and __iowmb() outside of asm/io.h

I'm sorry for that. Are those _relaxed() accessors okay? They don't show
up in Documentation/ so I ask here before I do it wrong again…

On the other hand if Tony or someone else things that this is not worth
it at all I could stick with readl/writel and drop the barries. It is
just that musb and releated code used those __raw accessors and I ended
up with them, too (I'm not looking for an excuse just saying that I do
not have any numbers to show which say that this is good in terms of
performance and worth keeping).
