[PATCH v4 2/2] MIPS: io: add a barrier after register read in readX()

[Sinan Kaya]

While a barrier is present in writeX() function before the register write,
a similar barrier is missing in the readX() function after the register
read. This could allow memory accesses following readX() to observe
stale data.
