No, it is intentional that the CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT symbol refers to
the fact that you can use the ioport_map function, in order to
disallow building drivers that depend on this function when it
is unavailable. I actually want to change this, but in the opposite
way of what you are proposing:

I think CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT should refer to the fact that the
inb/outb family of functions are usuable and be unset when
they are not provided, and I would introduce a new
CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT_MAP symbol for those (few) platforms that
have a working inb/outb but no ioport_map.

Why not just make CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS mandatory for all
platforms. It is use almost everywhere now.
