Why is this needed?
What's wrong with mapping resources through
 /sys/bus/pci/devices/XXXXXresourceX
?

uio currently only supports devices which do not
do DMA.

DMA from uio controlled devices is a no no unless
it's behind an IOMMU which can protect us from
random memory corruptions this could cause.

In the later case it's OK but we need some code
to check this and program the IOMMU appropriately.
