Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] parisc: define stronger ordering for the default readX()

parisc architecture seems to be mapping readX() and readX_relaxed() APIs
to __raw_readX() API.

__raw_readX() API doesn't provide any kind of ordering guarantees.
commit 032d59e1cde9 ("io: define stronger ordering for the default readX()
implementation") changed asm-generic implementation to use a more
conservative approach towards the readX() API.

Place a barrier() after the register read so that compiler doesn't
optimize across the regiter operation.
