Move the existing I/O read and write code for I/O memory into
the new helpers fb_cfb_read() and fb_cfb_write(). Make them the
default fp_ops. No functional changes.

In the near term, the new functions will be useful to the DRM
subsystem, which currently provides it's own implementation. It
can then use the shared code. In the longer term, it might make
sense to revise the I/O helper's default status and make them
opt-in by the driver. Systems that don't use them would not
contain the code any longer.

v2:
	* add detailed commit message (Javier)
	* rename fb_cfb_() to fb_io_() (Geert)
	* add fixes that got lost while moving the code (Geert)
