While testing and playing around with it on the qemu m68k virt machine,
I noticed that the date and sleep commands are broken after applying
these changes.
We will need the following two fixes to address this issue by using
__raw_readl and __raw_writel in goldfish_rtc/timer driver.
Could you please include them in your patchset, placing them before the
io macro changes?

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] rtc: goldfish: Use __raw_readl() and __raw_writel()
In QEMU, the Goldfish RTC is explicitly instantiated as a big-endian
device on the m68k virt machine (via the 'big-endian=true' property).
Currently, this driver uses ioread32() and iowrite32(), which works
by luck because the underlying readl() and writel() are currently
broken on m68k.
Use __raw_readl() and __raw_writel() instead to avoid breaking this
driver when the endianness of readl() and writel() is fixed.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] timer: goldfish: Use __raw_readl()
The Goldfish timer registers are native endian, so they act as
big-endian on the m68k virt machine. Currently, this driver uses
readl(), which works by luck because it's currently broken on m68k.
Use __raw_readl() instead to avoid breaking this driver when the
endianness of readl() is fixed.
