Sigh.  I guess it was bound to happen.

I've been debating far too long about this.  You end up with less code 
if you just modify the memory function to add the loop like was in the 
port function.  All the reuse you really get is the loop on the index.  
I'm not sure there's a lot of value in splitting this out.  It kind of 
defeats the purpose of the function variables, sort of.

I'll send you a patch I did in a separate email.  It ends up adding 14 
lines instead of 34 lines.

I really don't like passing in the is_memio.  It's hard to tell what 
true and false mean when you pass them in like that.  If we go this way, 
just use info->io.addr_type so you don't have to pass anything in.
