Do you mean that as replacement for "memcpy_fromio" or the whole
function code?
The reason for using __ioread32_copy() was to improve reading
performance (using aligned 32 bit access where possible). I'm not sure
if that really matters?

P.S.
Please don't yell at me in every sentence :( Makes me a bit sad :(
