OK, thanks.

OK, thanks.

Old models need this, whether new models need this depends on the
configuration. If the configuration doesn't allow "read after read on
the same address" reorder, dbar 0x700 behaves as nop, so we can use it
for all models.

OK, thanks.

The assembly is simple enough, and I think it is more portable.
