The current code assumed that READ/WRITE would produce atomic read/writes for
8/16/32-bit words, which in turned put assumption on the memcpy function.
Since some memcpy implementation do not always guarantee such strong assumption,
introduce two new operation READ/WRITE_ATOMIC which provide the necessary
tools to do correct read and write to register in a single memory access.
