Does this mean that firmware may already have assigned "high" I/O space
numbers for devices? I'm not sure how well device drivers can generally
deal with port numbers that don't fit into a 16-bit integer.

Is it possible to run a 32-bit kernel on these machines? If yes, than
taking up 16MB of virtual addresses may also become a problem.

In practice, one should rarely need more than a few kb worth of
port numbers, unless you expect to see hundreds of legacy PCI
devices.
