Like was done for read, provide the equivalent for write. Even if
current users are not in the hot path, this should future-proof it.
v2:
- Remove default from _Generic() - callers wanting to write more
than u64 should use iosys_map_memcpy_to()
- Add WRITE_ONCE() cases dereferencing the pointer when using system
memory
v3:
- Fix precedence issue when casting inside WRITE_ONCE(). By not using ()
around vaddr__ the offset was not part of the cast, but rather added
to it, producing a wrong address
- Remove compiletime_assert() as WRITE_ONCE() already contains it

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
