Subject: [Buildroot] [Bug 10171] devmem2 w (word) is 8 bytes in x86 64 systems

--- Comment #1 from Matt Weber <matthew.weber@rockwellcollins.com> ---
FYI, the busybox version of devmem is the most up to date and supports quadword
access.  This app I believe is just for backwards compatibility and there are
other address casting address issues with 32bit access on a 64bit bus (like on
the SoC FPGA ARM processors) with this tool.  Maybe a note should be added to
the package to reflect it's in a partially depreciated state?  Or we should
remove it and make it a virtual package setting the busybox option to enabled?
