 This is clearly wrong, there is PCIe 8250 serial hardware that does MMIO 
only, so the option has to stay possible to enable.  I have such hardware 
as shown in this log:

Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled
serial 0001:01:00.0: enabling device (0140 -> 0142)
serial 0001:01:00.0: detected caps 00000700 should be 00000500
0001:01:00.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0x600c080401000 (irq = 40, base_baud = 15625000) is a 16C950/954
serial 0001:01:00.0: detected caps 00000700 should be 00000500
0001:01:00.0: ttyS1 at MMIO 0x600c080401200 (irq = 40, base_baud = 15625000) is a 16C950/954

which is from a POWER9 system.  Which as you may know has no PCI port I/O 
support in hardware, so it is quite relevant here.  I'd like to keep this 
PCIe serial option functional with my system.

 Also your change itself modifies 8250_pci.c (cited above for reference), 
which would make no sense if SERIAL_8250_PCI was permanently disabled for 
!HAS_IOPORT.  Shall I take it than that the Kconfig change I question has 
been made merely by mistake?
