The ipack driver also fails on s390/allmodconfig:

drivers/staging/ipack/devices/ipoctal.c:59:2: error: implicit
declaration of function 'iowrite8'
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
drivers/staging/ipack/devices/ipoctal.c:72:2: error: implicit
declaration of function 'ioread8'
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

Guess it has to depend on HAS_IOMEM, too.

Cool, can I do that for all build failures? ;-)
