From: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzk@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: virtio: pci: constify ioreadX() iomem argument (as in generic implementation)

The ioreadX() helpers have inconsistent interface.  On some architectures
void *__iomem address argument is a pointer to const, on some not.

Implementations of ioreadX() do not modify the memory under the address so
they can be converted to a "const" version for const-safety and
consistency among architectures.
