That doesn't sound right. 

The only dependency for LEGACY_PCI is PCI. If one selects LEGACY_PCI
on an architecture that doesn't support it, this will cause problems.

Instead, HAS_IOPORT should be selected at architecture level, and
the dependency here should be just the opposite: LEGACY_API should
depends on HAS_IOPORT.

Thanks,
Mauro
