It gets the implicit PCI_IOBASE from asm-generic/io.h at the moment.

Same here.

I also see the same thing that Liviu mentioned, that PCI_IOBASE=0
is always provided by asm-generic/io.h if not set otherwise.

On a related topic, Uwe Kleine-König has submitted a patch to
rename CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT to CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT_MAP to clarify what
it does, and to allow us to add a new CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT option
that will let us remove all the I/O port handling code for
architectures that don't have any I/O access method.
