Sorry, but this patch is still incorrect. Any driver that requires a linear
mapping of I/O ports to __iomem pointers must depend CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT
with the current definition of that symbol (as mentioned before, we
should really rename that to CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT_MAP). Having these
functions not defined is a compile time check that is necessary to
ensure that all drivers have the correct annotation.

If a platform has no support for I/O ports at all, it should
probably not set CONFIG_NO_IOPORT at this point.
