Currently it manually flips the byte order, but we can instead use cpu_to_be32(val) for this.

The ioport / indexed-ioport accessed apple_gmux-es likely are (part of?) LPC bus devices . Looking at the bus level you are now changing 4 io accesses with a size of 1 byte, to 1 32 bit io-access.
Correction to myself, re-reading the LPC specification, then if I'm right and this is a LPC device then all IO in/out accesses are always 1 byte accesses. Since the LPC bus only supports 16 / 32 bit accesses for DMA cycles.
So presumably the outl() would get split into 4 separate 8 bit (port) IO accesses.
I wonder if there is something obscure and the order of the 4 bytes writes matters?
In any case writing as: xxxx iostart = gmux_data->iostart + port;
outb(val, iostart); outb(val >> 8, iostart + 1); outb(val >> 16, iostart + 2); outb(val >> 24, ioctart + 3); almost certainly generates better code.
