paravirt: helper to disable all IO space
In a virtual environment, device drivers such as legacy IDE will waste
quite a lot of time probing for their devices which will never appear.
This helper function allows a paravirt implementation to lay claim to
the whole iomem and ioport space, thereby disabling all device drivers
trying to claim IO resources.
