I should add something to my previous email. This particular section of
code is protected by:

#ifndef CONFIG_USB_UHCI_SUPPORT_NON_PCI_HC
/* Support PCI only */

So it gets used only in cases where the driver supports just a PCI bus
-- no other sorts of non-PCI on-chip devices. But the preceding patch
in this series changes the Kconfig file to say:

config USB_UHCI_HCD
tristate "UHCI HCD (most Intel and VIA) support"
depends on (USB_PCI && HAS_IOPORT) || USB_UHCI_SUPPORT_NON_PCI_HC

As a result, when the configuration includes support only for PCI
controllers the driver won't get built unless HAS_IOPORT is set. Thus
the no-op case (in this part of the code) can't arise.

Which is a long-winded way of saying that you're right; the UHCI_IN()
and UHCI_OUT() wrappers aren't needed in this part of the driver. I
guess Niklas put them in either for consistency with the rest of the
code or because it didn't occur to him that they could be omitted. (And
I didn't spot it either.)
