Well, this is the number that gets written into the outbound
translation window register, which has to be zero AFAICT.

The PCI device you plug into the bus will always see its io
ports as being between zero and 65536 -- the part that
stays at 0x10000UL is the offset address that we use in Linux
to give it a unique address in the virtual address space
window we use to cover all the io port ranges.

The io_offset still gets set to 0x10000, so this number always
gets added and subtracted when converting between Linux port
numbers and bus-specific port numbers.
