Quite often drivers set only "write" permission assuming that this

However IODA2 is strict about this and produces an EEH when "read"
permission is not and reading happens.

This adds a workaround in IODA code to always add the "read" bit when
the "write" bit is set.

Just posted.

If so is it an urgent fix I should send upstream now?

Yes.

Ben suggested that yes, it should. Thanks. Sorry about breaking things.
