Actually, that doesn't work at the moment on x86-64:

include/asm-generic/io.h only defines these things if
CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP isn't defined; and X86 unconditionally defines
it. With CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP set, these functions are provided by
include/asm-generic/iomap.h.

include/asm-generic/iomap.h has extern definitions of them:

extern unsigned int ioread8(void __iomem *);
extern unsigned int ioread16(void __iomem *);
extern unsigned int ioread16be(void __iomem *);
extern unsigned int ioread32(void __iomem *);
extern unsigned int ioread32be(void __iomem *);
#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
extern u64 ioread64(void __iomem *);
extern u64 ioread64be(void __iomem *);
#endif
[...]
extern void iowrite8(u8, void __iomem *);
extern void iowrite16(u16, void __iomem *);
extern void iowrite16be(u16, void __iomem *);
extern void iowrite32(u32, void __iomem *);
extern void iowrite32be(u32, void __iomem *);
#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
extern void iowrite64(u64, void __iomem *);
extern void iowrite64be(u64, void __iomem *);
#endif

The definitions for these are in lib/iomap.c, except that there are no
definitions for ioread64be() and iowrite64be(); if you try to use
them, you get linker errors.

I guess maybe the fix for that would be to, in iomap.c, just implement
iowrite64{,be} the same way as iowrite32{,be}, just under a "#ifdef
CONFIG_64BIT"?
