Seems to define _IO_BASE not PCI_IOBASE.

Doesn't appear to define PCI_IOBASE.

Maybe there's other patches required for these?

Right, so:

#ifdef CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT
#ifndef CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP
static inline void __iomem *ioport_map(unsigned long port, unsigned int nr)
{
        return (void __iomem *) port;
}

changing that to include PCI_IOBASE in there will result in a build
failure if the C compiler sees that.  In other words, when HAS_IOPORT=y
and GENERIC_IOMAP=n.

HAS_IOPORT is set when HAS_IOMEM is also set and NO_IOPORT unset.

It looks to me like blackfin doesn't set NO_IOPORT nor NO_IOMEM, so
this would have HAS_IOPORT set, and from what I can see doesn't set
GENERIC_IOMAP.  So, this change probably breaks blackfin.

I haven't looked deeply at the others.
