Correct - the PCMCIA device drivers use IO port addresses in the ISA
port range.

There's the APNE driver (Amiga PCMCIA NE2000 clone), which is already
catered for by the current code in io_mm.h. I remember seeing patches
for that driver that would allow support of a variant of the APNE card
that were hard to integrate in the current NE clone code framework.
Didn't consider adding another isa_type for that card at the time - I'll
revisit these patches if I can find them again.
Supporting PB190 PCMCIA hardware requires adding a new isa_type and the
corresponding IO translation cases. Not much more, for all I can see.
Existing chipset drivers from other architectures ought to work already.
Maybe add a specific block_input() hook as for APNE (but I surmise that
might just be code duplication from generic code in lib8390.c - didn't
check).
Not sure what card socket code the APNE driver uses - must be one of the
generic variants from drivers/pcmcia. If your PB190 needs something not
already in there, we'd need to add that as well.

Absolutely.
