Re: PATA_ARTOP reads byte from PCI IO port without mapping it tothe right address.

Sorry, I should have mentioned it more explicitly.
The machine is an SH4 based (The processor model is SH7751R, board is 
landisk.. in /arch/sh/include/mach-landisk/).

Ok, that makes a lot of sense.  This is the first time I've ever touched 
PCI.
I've looked around and I can't right now see where that matches up with 
the SH/board specific code but I'll have a better look later.

We've been trying to work this out for a few days.. we were fudging the 
io port base address in arch/sh/kernel/ioport.c to the start of the PCI 
space. But we didn't think that was the right thing to be doing.
We have another board with the same processor and e100 NIC that uses the 
same mapping to 0x1400 and uses io ports but worked fine. So we guessed 
it was pata_artops use of inb() .. the person that did a lot of changes 
to this board's code recently also wrote that he thought it was 
pata_artops fault when I asked on the linux-sh list.
