Anyway, this email ended up being a long explanation of what the code
_should_ do, in the hope that some enterprising kernel developer
decides "Oh, this sounds like an easy thing to fix". But you do need
to be able to test the end result at least a tiny bit.
In the meantime, the build fix is trivial: make that broken sparc
pci_iounmap() definition depend on CONFIG_PCI being set.

But let me build a few more sparc configs (and this time do it
properly for both 32-bit and 64-bit) before I actually commit it and
push it out.
If you want to get feedback whether the kernel actually boots, let me know.

I could test boot on a SPARC T5 LDOM (SPARC VM logical domain).

Adrian
