I've suggested creating a "CONFIG_PC_IO" symbol before that could used
to simplify this one and a couple of other similar Kconfig statements.
It is unfortunately a bit tricky because out of the dozen drivers that
are similar to this one, each one has a slightly different list of
architectures, and it's not clear which of the differences are intentional
rather than mistakes.
