Note that writel() only gives an implicit wmb() *before* the store to 
ensure ordering against any previous writes. If this code really needs 
to ensure that the given write has definitely completed before any other 
accesses happen, then it still needs an explicit barrier *after* the 
write*(), unless perhaps the next access is always guaranteed to be a 
non-relaxed write (thus implicitly providing a suitable DSB).
