Hmm, actually we have more than 65536 generically on PCI. It's
just the x86 that limits to 64k. I actually ran into trouble
here the other day --

Bus 0, device 5, function 1:
IDE interface: Contaq 82C693 (rev 0).
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 238. Master Capable.
No bursts.
I/O at 0x1f0 [0x1f1].
I/O at 0x3f4 [0x3f5].
I/O at 0x10100 [0x10101].
