The access to the full I/O port range can be also provided by the TSS I/O bitmap, but that would require to copy 8k of data on scheduling in the task. As shown with the sched out optimization TSS.io_bitmap_base can be used to switch the incoming task to a preallocated I/O bitmap which has all bits zero, i.e. allows access to all I/O ports. Implementing this allows to provide an iopl() emulation mode which restricts the IOPL level 3 permissions to I/O port access but removes the STI/CLI permission which is coming with the hardware IOPL mechansim. Provide a config option to switch IOPL to emulation mode, make it the default and while at it also provide an option to disable IOPL completely.
