If you add one more thing:

As mentioned, I'd like to see a code comment that explains the use
the of relaxed() vs non-relaxed MMIO accessors, as it will be impossible
for a reader to later understand why you picked a mix of the two,
and it also ensures that you have considered which one is the best
option to use here and that your explanation matches what you do.

Based on Russell's comments, I had expected that you would use
only relaxed accessors, plus explicit barriers if you change it, matching
what l2x0 does (l2x0 has to do it because of __l2c210_cache_sync(),
while you don't have a sync callback and don't need to).
