None of these functions do anything with cache. And with
devm_ioremap_resource you will likely get an uncached mapping of your
IO memory, so you don't even need to manage cache.
What you still need to preserve the order of writes is a memory barrier,
and none of io{read,write}32 do it either. You can insert proper barrier
before the write to that last isolated register.
