It was so in v1. But it was decided to use explicit memory barriers,
because we're always sure the memory barriers are there and that
they're properly documented. Also in this case I don't need to add
keystone readl/writel relaxed function variants and to use mixed calls of
writel/writel_relaxed functions.

We have explicit writew_relaxed and writew. Why open coding the
barriers?
