[U-Boot] [RFC PATCH] ARM: Avoid compiler optimization for usages of readb, writeb and friends.

[Alexander Holler]

gcc 4.5.1 seems to ignore (at least some) volatile definitions,
avoid that as done in the kernel.

Reading C99 6.7.3 8 and the comment 114) there, I think it is a bug of that
gcc version to ignore the volatile type qualifier used e.g. in __arch_getl().
Anyway, using a definition as in the kernel headers avoids such optimizations when
gcc 4.5.1 is used.

Maybe the headers as used in the current linux-kernel should be used,
but to avoid large changes, I've just added a small change to the current headers.

I haven't add the definitions which are using a memory barrier because I haven't found
a place in the kernel where they were actually enabled (CONFIG_ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE).
