My mistake, I meant to write asm-generic/io.h.

On a related note, I would actually prefer to get rid of this PCI_IOBASE
default and move it into the architectures that really want it like this.
The default when PCI_IOBASE is not set IMHO should be to also not provide
inb/outb and ioport_map() helpers, but we need a little more infrastructure
to actually make the kernel build in all valid configuration when we remove them.
