Disagree. There are various drivers that can use the IOSF interface but
do not need it, and need to also build and run on platforms without it.

The current code IMHO is correct. We want to make sure it builds without
IOSF, but that any attempt to use IOSF in such a runtime errors - that's
what this code does.
