I/O port protection: update for windows compatibility.

For windows compatibility,
1) On a port protection violation, simply ignore the request and
   do not return an exception (allow the control method to continue execution.)
2) If only part of the request overlaps a protected port,
   read/write the individual ports that are not protected.
