asm-generic/io.h provides a generic implementation of all I/O accessors,
which the architectures can override.
Since ia64 does not provide readsl/writesl etc, any driver using those
fails to build, and including asm-generic/io.h will provide the
missing interfaces, as well as any other future interfaces that get
added there. We need to #define a couple of symbols to themselves
in the ia64 to ensure that we use the ia64 specific version of those
rather than the generic one.
There should be no other effect than adding {read,write}s{b,w,l}()
as well as {in,out}s{b,w,l}_p(), which were also not provided
by ia64 but are provided by the generic header for historic reasons.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
