I really should have thought of that, as you mentioned already that
there is an ast2400 on those machines, and no I/O space on the PCI
bus.

Too bad we have to keep the I/O workarounds alive on PowerPC now,
I was already hoping they could go away after spider-pci gets phased
out.

Unfortunately, the way that PCI host bridges on PowerPC are handled
is a bit different from what we do on ARM64, otherwise the obvious
solution would be to move the I/O workarounds to an architecture
independent location. Maybe it's still possible, but that also requires
some refactoring then.
