Maybe we could have a list of legacy (ISA?) devices for drivers like vgacon to 
attach to?  The bus info could be stuffed into the legacy device structure 
itself so that the platform code would know what to do.

How do you mean?  Legacy I/O port accesses just become strongly ordered memory 
transactions, afaik, and legacy memory accesses are dealt with the same way.
