   Something is slightly weird. What does your /proc/ioports say? Mine with
2.3.49:

# cat /proc/ioports
0000-001f : dma1
0020-003f : pic1
0040-005f : timer
0060-006f : keyboard
0080-008f : dma page reg
00a0-00bf : pic2
00c0-00df : dma2
00f0-00ff : fpu
01f0-01f0 : ide0
01f1-01f1 : ide0
01f2-01f2 : ide0
01f3-01f3 : ide0
01f4-01f4 : ide0
01f5-01f5 : ide0
01f6-01f6 : ide0
01f7-01f7 : ide0
0300-031f : WD8013
03b0-03bb : mda
03bf-03bf : mda
03f6-03f6 : ide0
4c80-4cdb : aha1740
6000-6fff : NE3200

   Notice the many ide0 entries for eight consecutive port addresses. With
2.3.46 it looks like this:

# cat /proc/ioports
0000-001f : dma1
0020-003f : pic1
0040-005f : timer
0060-006f : keyboard
0080-008f : dma page reg
00a0-00bf : pic2
00c0-00df : dma2
00f0-00ff : fpu
01f0-01f7 : ide0
0300-031f : WD8013
03b0-03bb : mda
03bf-03bf : mda
03f6-03f6 : ide0
4c80-4cdb : aha1740

   Notice that ide0 only takes two entries here.
