Ok, thanks for confirming.

I would still suggest that you try to avoid GENERIC_IOMAP altogether
since sh has no custom inb/outb instructions and can just implement
ioport_map() to return an __iomem token that can be passed into 
readb/writeb, the same as the non-GENERIC_IOMAP version in sh does.

Ideally you can however remove the iomap.c file and the
asm-generic/iomap.h include and instead get the inline definitions
from the defaults in include/asm-generic/io.h.
