arm: Remove ioperm/iopl/inb/inw/inl/outb/outw/outl support
Linux only supports the required ISA sysctls on StrongARM devices,
which are armv4 and no longer tested during glibc development
and probably bit-rotted by this point.  (No reported test results,
and the last discussion of armv4 support was in the glibc 2.19
release notes.)
