While reviewing lockdown patches, I discovered that we still enable /dev/port (CONFIG_DEVPORT) in skiroot. /dev/port is used for old x86 style IO accesses. It's set up in drivers/char/mem.c, and is only created if arch_has_dev_port() returns true. Per arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h, on PPC64 with PCI, this is only true if there's a legacy ISA bridge. Even if a system has a legacy ISA bridge installed, we have no business accessing it in skiroot. Deselect CONFIG_DEVPORT for skiroot.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
