I do not think so, we have tons of drivers that use readl/writel. PCI express devices can not use port-based IO, they will be incredible slow then. I think confusion come from a fact that iwlwifi use pci_ioremp() for mapping registers, which can also maps port-based IO areas. Simply changing that into pci_ioremap_bar(), and make driver depend on CONFIG_HAS_IOMEM will remove that inconsistency.
