I see you keep the special case for MIPS here, I'd vote for folding
that back into the architecture-independent version and not treating
MIPS any different from the others. With your endianness detection, MIPS
should have no way of getting the byteorder wrong, and on MIPS the
platform is responsible for adding the appropriate barriers to
readl/writel.

Other than this, the patch looks good to me.
