I/O-space is only valid in the context of PCI, ISA, or similar buses, and
the bus-specific reg format indicates whether it's mmio-space or
io-space.

I think we must get rid with this crap, and since this IDE register
mapping is pretty much board specific, call it something like
"mpc8349emitx-ide" instead.

What is board specific about a set of standard IDE registers at a given
address?  Do we need to make board-specific glue code for all of the
various ns16550-compatibles out there as well?
