For bus_space, no.  For bus_dma, there are some reasons for them
to be different in one area: the callback mechanism for returning
a valid dma mapping.  The rest of the differences are primarily
from the fact that NetBSD has enhanced or modified their interfaces
since my original work and I haven't found the time to sync us back
up.
