I've been bringing in the newer NetBSD bus space stuff as part of the
newconfig + pccard work that I've been doing.  I can post what I've
done so far.  The bus_space_map and bus_subspace_map could likely be
better.  The one down side of how I've done it is that both the
bus_*_t types that were simple integers are now structs...

Is there interest in my work here?  I've been running it on my intel
machine and I've had no instabilities with it (which is kinda scary
given the extent of the changes I've made to the bus stuff).
