FWIW, I've now got a first prototype of the HAS_IOPORT rework in
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/arm/linux-arm-soc.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/tmp/randconfig3
along with a lot of bug fixes for ARM. Feel free to play with that on
other architectures.

Since your patch adds another use of HAS_IOPORT, I will have to rename
that as well to HAS_IOPORT_MAP as I do for all the other uses.
