Series Fix arm64 crash for accessing unmapped IO port regions (reboot) | expand

Commit Message

John Garry Jan. 15, 2021, 4:58 p.m. UTC 
Make IO space base address to be configurable through IO_SPACE_BASE.

This will allow architectures which do not natively support IO ports -
like arm64 - to harden against legacy ISA-based drivers which use
hardcoded addresses to access IO ports.

Any attempts for these drivers to request a resource region will now fail
for architectures with set IO_SPACE_BASE above legacy ISA IO port region
(0xffff).
