Maybe add a note saying that this will only be supported for devicetree
based systems.

So are you saying that it already works with bmips_stb_defconfig
(because it is little endian), that bmips_stb_defconfig needs memory
barriers, and that bmips_be_defconfig doesn't need memory barriers ?
Odd, but I'll take you by your word. And other code does something
similar, so I guess there must be a reason for it.
Anyway, after looking into that other code, please use something like
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MIPS) && IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN))
__raw_writel(value, reg);
else
writel(value, reg);
