This patch looks wrong to me, it's an indication that either a driver
is confusing ioport and __iomem addresses, or that something went
wrong during the initialization of the primary PCI bus.

We have a bug on cell that would be fixed with this patch, so it
might be the same problem, see the patch that I suggested for
this at http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?id=10840 .
