OK, I fixed them here and in all our other files that had them.

I didn't know about sparse.  I'll run it on our port and fix everything.

Sorry about that: the SiFive bus actually supports AMOs natively out to the
every device, even without caches, bit the RISC-V spec allows regions
to be marked as not supporting AMOs.  Sometimes a few SiFive-isms sneak in from
before the supervisor spec was written in this particular manner.  I've
converted this to a spinlock instead.

I assume you meant writel?  If so, that makes sense
