Does not belong in here (and is not used)

These look suspiciously similar to definitions from
drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hip04_mdio.c.

Could the hardware be related? If so, please try to share
the common parts.

Something seems wrong here: why do you have an ACCESS_ONCE() on a
local variable? Doesn't this just make the code less efficient
without providing lockless access to shared variables?

The types are inconsistent here, you should get a warning from
running this through 'make C=1' because of the missing __iomem
annotation of the pointer.

Also, why both a macro and an inline function? Just use an inline
function.
