NAK to this patch.

The greater concern is WTF are cleanup patches for the ARM architecture
going via the sound tree.  Especially patches which I have concerns about.

Do not use __typesafe_io() with the addition here without first ensuring
that you've investigated whether it causes the compiler to mis-optimise
the code.

Takashi - please remove all such patches from the sound tree.  They
should not be in there.
