PATCH 1/1 video via: fix iomem access

This driver is not respecting the iomem memory space restrictions and does direct access. This works on x86 but is non-portable and should not be done. Converted memcpy() of 2 to readw. Last post increment of romptr was unnecessary since pointer never used after that.

Found by sparse, compile tested only.

Applied (although it does not make a difference as viafb is x86 only). Thanks,
