Why is the ioport registration done in two steps?

Wouldnt a better sequence be something like:

> ioport__register(&virtio_console_io_ops, IOPORT_SIZE);

I.e. first register the ioport range - this would also get a free 
range for you, and then register the PCI driver?

Or something even more compact could be done i suspect - all of the 
drivers seem to be using the same registration sequence.
