Subject: bus: mvebu-mbus: do not set WIN_CTRL_SYNCBARRIER on non io-coherent platforms.

From: Nicolas Schichan <[email protected]>

commit 8c9e06e64768665503e778088a39ecff3a6f2e0c upstream.

Commit a0b5cd4ac2d6 ("bus: mvebu-mbus: use automatic I/O synchronization barriers") enabled the usage of automatic I/O synchronization barriers by enabling bit WIN_CTRL_SYNCBARRIER in the control registers of MBus windows, but on non io-coherent platforms (orion5x, kirkwood and dove) the WIN_CTRL_SYNCBARRIER bit in the window control register is either reserved (all windows except 6 and 7) or enables read-only protection (windows 6 and 7).
