You mean PIO. I agree with all your points here. The only thing I saw as an option would be to add a PIO BAR that is an exact mirror of the MMIO BAR if and only if: - PIO is indeed significantly faster on platforms we care about and/or - There is significant simplification in things like BIOSes in using PIO over MMIO I personally don't care and would chose to use MMIO always including in firmware on ppc.
