The ioreadX() and ioreadX_rep() helpers have inconsistent interface. On
some architectures void *__iomem address argument is a pointer to const,
on some not.
Implementations of ioreadX() do not modify the memory under the address
so they can be converted to a "const" version for const-safety and
consistency among architectures.

Changes since v1:
1. Constify also ioreadX_rep() and mmio_insX(),
2. Squash lib+alpha+powerpc+parisc+sh into one patch for bisectability,
The alpha and parisc versions should be independent, I was thinking
you leave them as separate patches, but this work for me too.
I have no real opinion on the other 8 patches, I would have left
them out completely, but they don't hurt either.
