and the code I pasted has this:

	//      init_memory_mapping(0, ISA_END_ADDRESS);

which is disabling the direct mapping of the ISA range.

Two very different things.

And you don't absolutely need to try it because it would simply move the
warning to another address, just like it happened on my system. Because
looking at your dmesg, that E350M1 machine is very similar to the laptop
I have. But feel free if you have time on your hands... :)

So it is an OS installation which you swap between two machines. I
admit, it is the first time I hear of such a use case. In that case,
yes, bitness does matter.
