Could we not just hang this off the 64-bit atomicity property to match 
the read path? It doesn't seem like there's much benefit in 
micro-optimising for whether the interconnect splits 64-bit accesses 
into 32-bit bursts vs. just not accepting them at all.

lo_hi_writeq() - the header's already included for 32-bit build 
coverage, so we may as well put it to use :)

Thanks,
Robin.
