Okay, i don't want to hold up this patch over technicalities if it fixes the issue, in which case the readbacks probably provide just the right amount of delay for the FIFO clear to happen in hardware.

The readback just lets the CPU wait until the write reached the peripheral, which I don't see a reason to do here. The ordering of the writes from the perspective of the peripheral is completely the same with or without the readback. The later writes can not overtake the FIFO clear writes due to the barriers. I'm strongly against adding stuff because it "might have an effect", if it isn't required by architectural rules. It clutters the code and some months/years down the line nobody dares to cleanup/remove this stuff anymore, because everyone assumes that there was a good reason for adding those things. Since there is no RTL for any of the iMXes or their IPs, how do you propose anyone except NXP can validate what is and what is not required ? This patch helps with a problem where I sporadically observe shifted image on boot on mx8mm. The order of writes to a device mapped region are defined by the ARM architecture and the AMBA bus standard, not the peripheral. I'm not saying this patch isn't needed. I'm saying the readbacks look bogus. Have you checked that just adding the write to the REG_CLR doesn't fix your issue? No, it does not help with the issue.

Do you really need those readbacks? As both writes are targeting the
same slave interface, the memory barrier in the clear write should push
the set write.

[PATCH] drm: mxsfb: Clear FIFO_CLEAR bit
Make sure the FIFO_CLEAR bit is latched in when configuring the
controller, so that the FIFO is really cleared. And then clear
the FIFO_CLEAR bit, since it is not self-clearing.
