Do you have a link to the driver? Maybe it can just be
made 'depends on !GENERIC_IOMAP' if it doesn't run on x86
or um.

bgpio_setup_accessors() already has a special case for 64-bit
configs to allow bgpio_read64(), so it wouldn't be any
weirder to also require !GENERIC_IOMAP here.

It looks like there is only one PCI driver using pci_iomap
with bgpio_init(), and this one is x86 specific:
drivers/gpio/gpio-sodaville.c. This one is little-endian
and 32-bit only.
