We just added a feature to UIO that allows you to pass information about
such I/O ports to userspace. In struct uio_info, there's now also a port[]
array for that purpose. In your case, you will probably want to set the
the porttype member of struct uio_port to UIO_PORT_X86.

The portio feature is available since .29-rc1, please use it.

Otherwise, your driver looks quite good, I'd say.
I've added a few remarks, though.

Thanks,
Hans

What happens with PCI on PowerPC ?

As I explained above, this is not needed anymore. The reason we don't want
this: It breaks generic userspace tools that rely on the fact that any
memory found underneath the maps/ directory in sysfs can be mapped.

In case of ports we don't have anything to be mapped, we simply want to
pass information to userspace. That justifies having a different sysfs
directory for it.

please put this <asm/...> include under the <linux/...> includes, separated by
one blank line. Makes it easier to find. BTW, do you actually need this one?

port[] instead of mem[].

I'd find it better if you printed a message in case of failure...
And please use dev_err() etc. instead of printk().

BTW, if this test fails, are you sure you can continue and let probe()
succeed?
