Echoing Jason's comment, what is this even trying to achieve? Nothing in 
the spec suggests that the cycle counter register is functionally 
different from the other PMU counter registers (other than its 
self-contained overflow bit).

It is not, in general, safe to do a split write to a running counter 
either way - low-high vs. high-low just moves the problem around, 
changing *which* combinations of values are problematic and capable of 
overflowing into each other between the writes. If the PMU driver can't 
write counters atomically, it will need to ensure that it only ever 
write them while stopped (at which point the order surely shouldn't 
matter). Conversely, though, reading from running counters is a bit more 
reasonable, but it needs more than just hi_lo_readq to guarantee it's 
not got a torn result.

Thanks,
Robin.
