[PATCH v3 2/5] m68k: Fix writew(), writel(), readw(), readl() endianness for classic m68k

In Linux these are meant to read a little-endian value and swap
to the CPU endian.
In u-boot for m68k this is currently broken and prevents
virtio-mmio from functioning.
This change is only for classic m68k. Coldfire has read big-endian,
no swap for these in u-boot and Linux and existing drivers probably
depend on this.
