That's supposedly because xquad_portio (ifdef CONFIG_MULTIQUAD) is not
exported, thus causing all modules using I/O instructions to fail.

I also see a static definition of xquad_portio in
arch/i386/boot/compressed/misc.c, for which I don't understand why it's
needed at all.

Trivial patch appended.
