I would favor the Janusz's set going in first since it will solve and
help the in-tree problems without making out-of-tree use any worse than
currently.

- Fixes register access in polled I/O functions (out-of-tree use)
- Fixes McBSP register corruption noted on Amstrad Delta
- McBSP register caching could help the PM development

Fixing any other issues in polled I/O API belongs to another context
than this patch set and IMO is easier to handle after this set since the
patch 1/5 already fixes the register access width.
