s3c24xx has a custom implementation of the inb/outb family of I/O accessors, implementing both general register access and ISA I/O port through a multiplexer. As far as I can tell, the first case has never been needed, and certainly is not used now, as drivers only use inb/outb to actually driver ISA or PCI port I/O. Similarly, the special ISA support is limited to a single machine, the Simtec Electronics BAST (EB2410ITX) with its PC/104 expansion connector, all other machines could simply use the generic implementation from asm/io.h that expects a single memory-mapped address range for byte, word and dword access. As no other machines besides BAST actually selects CONFIG_ISA, this is likely not even necessary. As a cleanup, remove support for the non-ISA access from the helpers, and make the ISA access use the virtual address window that we use elsewhere for PCI I/O ports. In configurations without the BAST machine, this now falls back on the generic implementation from asm/io.h, but the mach/io.h header is still relied on to include a number of other header files implicitly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
