Once caching is enabled[1] you won't be able to do I/O until the MMU is set up
for an uncached I/O mapping.

[1] Or at some similar point during early init. It's been a while since I
worked on chips like this, so I don't recall the details of which caches are
enabled on kernel entry and whether there's some magic to exempt I/O, but I do
remember there being a stretch of time during init where doing I/O was a
problem.
