There's nothing wrong with const iomem pointers.  If you think
otherwise, patch x86 not to use const in its accessor implementation
and watch the reaction:

#define build_mmio_read(name, size, type, reg, barrier) \
static inline type name(const volatile void __iomem *addr) \
{ type ret; asm volatile("mov" size " %1,%0":reg (ret) \
:"m" (*(volatile type __force *)addr) barrier); return ret; }

build_mmio_read(readb, "b", unsigned char, "=q", :"memory")
build_mmio_read(readw, "w", unsigned short, "=r", :"memory")
build_mmio_read(readl, "l", unsigned int, "=r", :"memory")
