Probably, it looks like it has both mmio and io:
drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx_2/sym_glue.c
#ifdef CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_MMIO
if (device->mmio_base)
device->s.ioaddr = pci_iomap(pdev, 1,
pci_resource_len(pdev, 1));
#endif
if (!device->s.ioaddr)
device->s.ioaddr = pci_iomap(pdev, 0,
pci_resource_len(pdev, 0));
so ... ACK?
