Vitor reported a problem with readsl(): this function expects the 2nd
argument to be aligned on 32-bit, which is not guaranteed here. Unless
you see a better solution, I'll switch back to a loop doing:

for (i = 0; i < nbytes; i += 4) {
u32 tmp = __raw_readl(...);

Pls, do not use __raw io.

Except this is exactly what I want here, unless you have a
replacement for "readl() without a mem-barrier and without endianness
conversion"


Not sure why endianness is the problem. readl_relaxed?
Sry, I've missed that this is part of the driver not i3c core,
so minor/ignore.
