I'm not convinced about this last sentence.

It's true that on most modern systems, including that Intel PCH, the
Super I/O controller is attached via an LPC bridge on a PCI bus.

But I don't think it's an actual requirement that PCI be involved.
There certainly once were systems, e.g., PC/104, that had ISA devices
but no PCI. Maybe Super I/O attached via ISA is obsolete enough that
we don't care any more, but I really don't know.

My take is that ARM64 is responsible for implementing inb/inw/inl in
such a way that they don't crash. I don't think it's practical to
update all the old ISA drivers or even the core code to work around
that.

The beauty of lore.kernel.org is that the URL contains the Message-ID, so
it's easy build the URL and it would contain useful information even if
lore.kernel.org disappeared:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/56F209A9.4040304@xxxxxxxxxx
