Sound like a bug in iasl imho.

IO is somehow reserved by ASL, but the fact that it is placed here should
cause iasl to consider it as a regular 'name' no matter what.

By replacing it via IO_ or IO__ (from AML point-of-view, that the same
thing anyway) this should compile because IO is no more a lexical token, but
you will get the exact same namespace.
