What's the semantics of a 64-bit IO access?  Does the low 32-bit get
written before the high 32-bit, or is it the other way around?  Does
it depend on the endian-ness?  What if some hardware needs the low
32-bit first and other needs the high 32-bit first?

I don't think it's reasonable to expect 32-bit hardware to perform 64-bit
IO accesses.
