Rather than crafting custom macros for reading/writing each system
register provide generics accessors, read_sysreg and write_sysreg, for
this purpose.

Unlike read_cpuid, calls to read_exception_reg are never expected
to be optimized away or replaced with synthetic values.

What's read_exception_reg? Is it a macro somewhere?

And maybe a comment here on why this is always volatile.

Otherwise:

That was what read_sysreg used to be called on a local branch of mine. I
didn't spot that when reworking the patch.

So s/read_exception_reg/read_sysreg/ here.

Makes sense to me.

Marc, are you happy to turn the last sentence from the commit message
into a comment here (with the substitution)?

Thanks,
Mark.
