So thre's really two steps here:

 1) stop uing lo_hi_readq diretly which forces 32-bit access even on
    64-bit platforms
 2) stop using the io-64-nonatomic headers entirely

I definitively want 1) done if the hardware does not require it.  Trying
to cater to 32-bit build tests on hardware that has no chance of ever
being used there by including the header seems a bit silly, but if
it makes folks happy I can live with it.
