It's documented in Documentation/DocBook/deviceiobook.tmpl. If the
documentation isn't clear, we should fix it, rather than avoid using the
primitive altogether. If drivers/net really means mmiowb() in some
places, we should change it, and like you said maybe get rid of some of
these primitives so that their usage is clearer.
