Commit b5c75b68b7de ("comedi: add HAS_IOPORT dependencies") changed the

I don't see why you'd remove the 'depends on COMEDI_8254' here
rather than turning it back into 'select' as it was originally.
Oops! That's an error on my part. Thanks for catching it!
It might be easier to revert the original patch, and then follow
up with a fixed version.
Will any random config builds break in 6.5 stable if the original patch
is reverted, or is the 'HAS_IOPORT' stuff still in preparation for
future use?
The patch that finally compile-time disables I/O port accesses as well
as a few others are still not merged. I was away for a few weeks and
also still have a few todos. I also and found a few things needed for
new changes. So no a revert will not break compiles or anything like
that.
Thanks for the confirmation. Will it be safe to assume that anything
that selects ISA will also select HAS_IOPORT? That is trivially the
case for arch/{alpha,arm,x86}; arch/mips explicitly selects HAS_IOPORT
if ISA is selected; arch/powerpc explicitly selects HAS_IOPORT if PCI is
selected and it is only possible to configure ISA if PPC_CHRP is
configured which selects FORCE_PCI and therefore selects PCI and
therefore selects HAS_IOPORT; arch/um does not select HAS_IOPORT and
although it has a 'config ISA', nothing appears to select it. None of
the remaining arch/* have 'select ISA'.
