You need to disable on Sparc any drivers which need
to use these routines, they simply will not work.

It is not a matter of just including asm/io.h, even
if it compiled it still would not work.

Direct I/O port fiddling is not supported on Sparc.

If you want to access PCI devices from userspace, we
do have portable ways to do that, and such code can
be found in the xfree86 Sparc/Linux support code.
