| Uh, is "BUS_SPACE_BARRIER_WRITE_READ" obvious as to what it does?!

In my experience it's more difficult to immediately detect the
difference between BUS_SPACE_BARRIER_WRITE_READ and
BUS_SPACE_BARRIER_READ_WRITE than BUS_SPACE_BARRIER_W_R
and BUS_SPACE_BARRIER_R_W, which is likely to result in
fewere typos.
