Yes some chicken and egg problem here to some extent :-/ What would be elegant is some readl_early_physical(u32 addr); that is guaranteed to set up a temporary mapping, read out that 32-bit word wherever it lives and tear it the map down in a controlled manner afterwards. We could tag it __init so it is not abused at runtime. This could atleast collect these hacks in one place. Don't know how easy it'd be to achieve that...
