Devil's advocate: there already exist workarounds for 8-bit and/or 
16-bit accesses not working in various places, does it make sense for a 
64-bit workaround to be so wildly different and disjoint?

As mentioned previously, 32-bit systems may not need the overrides for 
kernel I/O accessors, but they could still need the same workarounds for 
the memory-mapping implications (if this is to be a proper generic 
mechanism).

Tip: it is always redundant to state that.
