iomap: constify ioreadX() iomem argument (as in generic implementation)

Patch series "iomap: Constify ioreadX() iomem argument", v3.

The ioread8/16/32() and others have inconsistent interface among the
architectures: some taking address as const, some not.

It seems there is nothing really stopping all of them to take pointer to
const.

This patch (of 4):

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.
