Exactly, and you wouldn't be using inb/inw with ioport_map().

The problem comes when you end up trying to deal with stuff which
uses ioread{8,16} on ioport_map() cookies where it's assumed that
adding N to the cookie is the same as adding N to the port address.

Thankfully those platforms aren't going to be a part of the single
zImage project...
