[PATCH 03/11] x86: Lock down IO port access in secure boot environments

[Matthew Garrett]

IO port access would permit users to gain access to PCI configuration
registers, which in turn (on a lot of hardware) give access to MMIO register
space. This would potentially permit root to trigger arbitrary DMA, so lock
it down by default.
