It's true that the current Linux "x86 view of PCI I/O space" is pretty
simple and limited. But I don't think that's a fundamental x86 limitation
(other than the fact that the actual INB/OUTB/etc. CPU instructions
themselves are limited to a single 64K I/O port space).
Host bridges on x86 could have MMIO apertures that turn CPU memory accesses
into PCI port accesses. We could implement any number of I/O port spaces
this way, by making the kernel inb()/outb()/etc. interfaces smart enough to
use the memory-mapped space instead of (or in addition to) the
INB/OUTB/etc. instructions.
ia64 does this (see arch/ia64/include/asm/io.h for a little description)
and I think maybe one or two other arches have something similar.

I don't quite see how you intend to use this, because this series doesn't
include any non-stub implementation of pci_register_io_range().
Is this anything like the ia64 strategy I mentioned above? If so, it would
be really nice to unify some of this stuff.
