I could go either way, but there are times where local wrapper I/O
accessors are useful. Case in point: it makes it really easy to make the
choice between readl() and readl_relaxed() in one place (i.e., the
discussion you had in another branch of this thread). That's been useful
for me on brcmnand, where certain platforms (big-endian MIPS) have
different assumptions about endianness than your average platform. Also,
it helps with things like what Robert Jarzmik is trying to do on
pxa3xx_nand -- add debug info to print every register read/write.

Also as Cyrille mentioned, personal taste is a factor.

Anyway, I'll go with whatever makes sense between y'all. I don't mind.
