Only access the lowest byte on the bus. This is only needed for
meta-data reads (like status reads or ids) where the upper byte would
be a duplicate.

If on a 16-bit bus, you would receive 2c 2c d3 d3 d0 d0 a6 a6 etc and
of course that's not what you want.

Ok great, in this case you should configure the bus width depending
on the actual used width (8 or 16 bits). When an 8-bit access is
requested with force_8bit, you should ensure the buswidth is changed
to 8 and then use ioread8/16/32 as you wish and then return the bus
back into its default state.

This is precisely what compatibles are for, I believe we should declare
the necessary additional compatibles and fix the device trees that are
wrong.
