powerpc/io: Avoid clang null pointer arithmetic warnings



With -Wextra clang warns about pointer arithmetic using a null pointer.
When building with CONFIG_PCI=n, that triggers a warning in the IO
accessors, eg:

  In file included from linux/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h:672:
  linux/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io-defs.h:23:1: warning: performing pointer arithmetic on a null pointer has undefined behavior [-Wnull-pointer-arithmetic]
     23 | DEF_PCI_AC_RET(inb, u8, (unsigned long port), (port), pio, port)
        | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  ...
  linux/arch/powerpc/include/asm/io.h:591:53: note: expanded from macro '__do_inb'
    591 | #define __do_inb(port)          readb((PCI_IO_ADDR)_IO_BASE + port);
        |                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^

That is because when CONFIG_PCI=n, _IO_BASE is defined as 0.

Although _IO_BASE is defined as plain 0, the cast (PCI_IO_ADDR) converts
it to void * before the addition with port happens.

Instead the addition can be done first, and then the cast. The resulting
value will be the same, but avoids the warning, and also avoids void
pointer arithmetic which is apparently non-standard.
