Ok.
There are 'mfdcri' and 'mtdcri' macros in
"arch/powerpc/include/asm/dcr-native.h" file.
They internally use '__mfdcri' and '__mtdcri' functions which can be
used for the same
purpose as mentioned above.
Instead of putting this change in current patch, I will make separate
patch for this purpose.
