I see your patch changes the code to the lo_hi_writeq() accessor,
and it also fixes the endianness bug (double byteswap on big-endian),
but it does not fix the spinlock bug (writel on pci leaks out of the lock
unless it's followed by a read).

I'd suggest splitting the bugfix from the cleanup here, and fixing both
of the bugs while you're at it.
