Oh my god.  I think we're both right: no driver should use asm-generic,
but because someone totally messed this abstraction up you have no choice.

We really should have a linux/*.h header for these that just does the
right thing.

Btw, what's the reason you're using the hi-lo ordering unlikely everyone
else?  IMHO that should be an arch and not a driver choice.
