This all looks good to me and I'd like to merge it all in the
asm-generic tree in the next few days, assuming nobody has any
further objections.
If something breaks, we can fix it with a patch on top.
I have a few more patches make it possible to build arm64 kernels
without CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT, but we don't need them as part of your
series and can merge them through driver trees independently.
