Thanks for reviewing. Then let's wait for MIPS people to help check
this.

Yeah, sounds reasonable, will change.

Yeah, defining mmiowb() to wmb() directly is also good to me. I tried
to comb including sequence and find where asm/io.h is included, but
failed. Mainly asm/mmiowb.h including asm/io.h will cause below
compiling error, the asm/io.h need see mmiowb_set_pending which is
defnined in asm-generic/mmiowb.h. Moving asm-generic/mmiowb.h to above
asm/io.h can also fix the compiling error.
