Currently request_region() requests an IO port region directly from the
top resource, ioport_resource.
There is an issue here, in that drivers may successfully request an IO
port region even if the IO port region has not even been mapped in
(in pci_remap_iospace()).
This may lead to crashes when the system has no PCI host, or, has a host
but it has failed enumeration, while drivers still attempt to access PCI
IO ports, as below:

Note that the f71882fg driver correctly calls request_muxed_region().
This issue was originally reported in [1].
This patch changes the functionality of request{muxed_}_region() to
request a region from a direct child descendent of the top
ioport_resource.
In this, if the IO port region has not been mapped for a particular IO
region, the PCI IO resource would also not have been inserted, and so a
suitable child region will not exist. As such,
request_{muxed_}region() calls will fail.
A side note: there are many drivers in the kernel which fail to even call
request_{muxed_}region() prior to IO port accesses, and they also need to
be fixed (to call request_{muxed_}region(), as appropriate) separately.
