Why the `ifdef MODULE'?  The module parameters are still accessible if
the driver is statically linked and we do want the driver to behave in
the same way regardless of how it was linked and loaded.

huh, I hadn't noticed that RIO has its very own vmlinux section.  How
peculair.

How come the driver has no locking for rio_mports?  If a bugfix isn't
needed here then a code comment is!
