In general I would say yes, but for this particular hardware it's a bit
questionable to do so.
For radeon hardware to work correctly the CPU access to the PCIE BARs
should work even without using the specialized IO macros/functions,
otherwise mapping VRAM CPU accessible isn't really possible.
What's the background of the change? Some problems on a certain CPU
platform? or just general cleanups?
Regards,
Christian.

Use readb() and memcpy_fromio() accessors instead.
