Code includes wmb() followed by writel(). writel() already has a barrier on
some architectures like arm64.

This ends up CPU observing two barriers back to back before executing the
register write.

Create a new wrapper function with relaxed write operator. Use the new
wrapper when a write is following a wmb().

Since code already has an explicit barrier call, changing writel() to
writel_relaxed().

Also add mmiowb() so that write code doesn't move outside of scope.
