I think this one is due to not forcing the volatile cast in __raw_write().
So this change will fix that:

Look good to me but isn't easier to leave them undefined and include
asm-generic/io.h?

Not so simple at the moment. Although juggling a few things around within
io_no.h will let you use the asm-generic functions it will now throw up
a _lot_ of warnings in many of the architecture files that pass int constant
addresses to the raw_* functions. That is on my todo list.
