In theory, the driver registers the mmio and i/o ports it uses. It is the
mem_check_region() and io_check_region() defined by include/kgi/system.h
Linux currently has no arbitration for memory regions, so mem_check_region()
doesn't do anything for this kernel.
Effectively, it should be done in the chipset driver, at init time.
