So if I understand you correctly you would like to have an
iopart_map() call in the cs89x0_probe() function and use the return
value of that iopart_map() call as ioaddr parameter of the
cs89x0_probe1() function. Is this correct? This would make the
cs89x0_probe() function similar to the cs89x0_platform_probe()
function where the return value of the ioremap() call is used as
ioaddr parameter of the cs89x0_probe1() function.

But why do you want to convert the current 16 bit accesses in the
#else path to 32 bit accesses? Why not using ioread16()/iowrite16()?
