Looks good. It would be nicer to match on device_type than on name,
but this is ancient code and it's probably best not to touch it
so we don't accidentally break some old SPARC or PPC system.

This looks wrong: the property above says that the I/O port range is
translated to MMIO address 0x00000000 to 0x00010000, which is not
true on your hardware. I think this needs to be changed in the code
so the ranges property is not required for I/O ports.

I don't like having a special case based on the address here,
the same kind of hack might be needed for PCI I/O spaces in
hardware that uses an indirect method like your LPC bus
does, and the code above will not work on any LPC implementation
that correctly multiplexes its I/O ports with the first PCI domain.

I think it would be better to avoid translating the port into
a physical address to start with just to translate it back into
a port number, what we need instead is the offset between the
bus specific port number and the linux port number. I've added
Liviu to Cc, he wrote this code originally and may have some idea
of how we could do that.
