Hi,

The issue about "Fixed Address" is we can't control the ioport
That driver used to operate devices.
So any attempt to resolve it in logic_pio seems impossible.

Currently we have i8259, i8042, piix4_smbus, mc146818 rely on this assumption.

My plan is after getting this part merged, I'm going to work on a ISA Host bridge driver,
then convert device drivers into logic_pio and Devicetree based driver step by step.

Finally when we nologner have any legacy driver, we can safely remove this reserved
range.

Thanks.
