complaining because of the type-unsafeness of the ioport callbacks. This patchset adds a type-safe variant of ioport callbacks and coverts a sample ioport. Converting the other 300-odd registrations is left as an excercise
to the community.

Should we create a Documentation/ file with incomplete transitions and the commit(s) that introduced them, for volunteers who wish to do some dirty work or to learn Coccinelle?

If we have a TODO, we could add a janitor section there.

That's unnecessary work. The vast majority of the callers of register_ioport* should be using a bus specific interface instead.
