We don't currently have PCIe support in mainline for arm64 but what I
had in mind with the generic iomap is that functions like ioread32_rep
first check whether the address is an IO address or a memory one and
calls the insl or mmio_insl accordingly. With your generic
implementation, this check disappears.

The question is whether this functionality would still be needed.
