I know, but the discussion was so huge on the first posting that it was
basically impossible to draw a conclusion out of it.

I have the feeling that the problem is more complex than that. My
understanding is that the pcim_iomap_regions() function used by
drivers/ata/libata-sff.c can perfectly be used to map memory BARs, and
not necessarily I/O BARs. Therefore, this driver can perfectly be used
in an architecture where CONFIG_NO_IOPORT is selected.
The thing is that pcim_iomap_regions() transparently allows to remap an
I/O BAR is such a BAR is passed as argument, or a memory BAR if such a
BAR is passed as argument.
Therefore, I continue to believe that the pcim_*() functions are useful
even if the platform doesn't have CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT.
Best regards,
Thomas
