[PATCH kernel v2] powerpc/ioda: Set "read" permission when "write" is set

Quite often drivers set only "write" permission assuming that this
includes "read" permission as well and this works on plenty platforms.
However IODA2 is strict about this and produces an EEH when "read"
permission is not and reading happens.

This adds a workaround in IODA code to always add the "read" bit when
the "write" bit is set.

This fixes breakage introduced in
10b35b2b74 powerpc/powernv: Do not set "read" flag if direction==DMA_NONE
