This is probably missing barriers, and is wrong on systems on which
the endianess of the device is different from the CPU.

You already have an indirection in there, so I guess it won't hurt
to create a third case for little-endian registers and add
another bit in drvdata->flags, or make it depend on the architecture,
if the endianess of the device registers is known at compile time.
