regmap: mmio: Convert to regmap_bus and fix accessor usage
Currently regmap-mmio uses the __raw accessors to read and write from memory. This is not safe as these interact poorly with spinlocks and are not guaranteed to generate emulated instructions on at least ARM where regmap is commonly used. The APIs that are provided all provide some byte swapping so this is difficult to do with the current regmap-mmio implementation which attempts to use the regmap core byte swapping. We can fix this by modernising the MMIO implementation to use reg_read() and reg_write() operations which were added after the API was implemented and pass simple unsigned integers through to the bus, making use of the formatting provided by the I/O accessors using a similar pattern to that used by the core. This will be less efficient for block I/O operations since we now enable and disable any required clocks per register but it is not clear that any users of regmap-mmio actually use block I/O and there is room to optimise later. This removes support for big endian I/O on 64 bit registers since no I/O accessors are provided, no current users were found and support can be added easily once they are available. In addition make the default endianness little endian. This was the behaviour prior to 29bb45f25ff305 (regmap-mmio: Use native endianness for read/write) and is the behaviour desired by most existing users, the users have been audited and those that need native endianness converted to request it explicitly. Previously native was documented as the default but due to the byte swapping in the accessors this was not correctly implemented.
