sio doesn't care what bus it attaches to, so long as it can get its
resources. ppc still has some isa specific calls in it, but those map
to bus generic ones so would just work. I've been holding off working
on this until I saw what haked out of the bus unification work that
Matt Dodd has been working on. I think he's mostly done, but I wasn't
sure enough of that to proceed.
