riscv,mmio: Fix readX()-to-delay() ordering

commit 4eb2eb1b upstream.

Section 2.1 of the Platform Specification [1] states:

  Unless otherwise specified by a given I/O device, I/O devices are on
  ordering channel 0 (i.e., they are point-to-point strongly ordered).

which is not sufficient to guarantee that a readX() by a hart completes
before a subsequent delay() on the same hart (cf. memory-barriers.txt,
"Kernel I/O barrier effects").

Set the I(nput) bit in __io_ar() to restore the ordering, align inline
comments.
