i changed the accessors to use in/out macros as i thought that was the correct 
set of accessor functions to use.  looking at a set of definitions and picking 
a set because they look like they'll "just work" isnt how i set about it.

after having read the deviceiobook in the Linux kernel, i think the correct 
funcs to use here are the read/write helpers.  now that i have that 
information, looking at the definitions shows that this should work for ARM 
just fine.

so, to be clear, i think we should do:
-#define DM9000_outb(d,r) outb(d, r)
+#define DM9000_outb(d,r) writeb(d, r)
etc...
