Yes, I know these are _very_ ugly. Unfortunately, the other ntb drivers
each have the exact same thing. ioread64 is not provided universally at
this time and I did spend a bit of time digging and things are a bit
messy so I wasn't at all sure of the correct solution.

For starters, ioread64 is only defined on 64 bit machines. They are
surrounded by ifdef CONFIG_64BIT and it's not clear to me if the above
wrapper (around two ioread32s) would be acceptable universally.

Second, the x86_64 version doesn't even compile. This is because the
arch doesn't provide any ioread64 implementation anywhere and the macro
in io.h isn't used because CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP is defined.

The only arch where I _think_ ioread64 would work is powerpc or any that
define CONFIG_64BIT and not CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP.

If you have any guidance on this I'd be happy to try and make a patch or
two for it.

Thanks,

Logan
