That is indeed the cause, and I'd say that the patch to fix it is
incorrect.

misc-ep93xx.h brings in EP93xx specific raw IO accessors into the
decompressor, but we've already had (and correctly had) linux/io.h
included.

The problem is misc-ep93xx.h. Why is it defining these accessors?
That's a question for Arnd.
