Subject: [PATCH] asm-generic/io.h: Implement read[bwlq]_relaxed()

Currently the read[bwlq]_relaxed() family are implemented on every
architecture except blackfin, m68k[1], metag, openrisc, s390[2] and
score. Increasingly drivers are being optimized to exploit relaxed
reads putting these architectures at risk of compilation failures for
shared drivers.

This patch addresses this by providing implementations of
read[bwlq]_relaxed() that are identical to the equivalent read[bwlq]().
All the above architectures include asm-generic/io.h .

Note that currently only eight architectures (alpha, arm, arm64, avr32,
hexagon, microblaze, mips and sh) implement write[bwlq]_relaxed() meaning
these functions are deliberately not included in this patch.

[1] m68k includes the relaxed family only when configured *without* MMU.
[2] s390 requires CONFIG_PCI to include the relaxed family.
