gcc 4.5.1 seems to ignore (at least some) volatile definitions, avoid that as done in the kernel.
Reading C99 6.7.3 8 and the comment 114) there, I think it is a bug of that gcc version to ignore the volatile type qualifier used e.g. in __arch_getl(). Anyway, using a definition as in the kernel headers avoids such optimizations when gcc 4.5.1 is used. Maybe the headers as used in the current linux-kernel should be used, but to avoid large changes, I've just added a small change to the current headers. I haven't add the definitions which are using a memory barrier because I haven't found a place in the kernel where they were actually enabled (CONFIG_ARM_DMA_MEM_BUFFERABLE).
