Subject: [PATCH 3.16 030/132] hwmon: (smsc47b397) Use request_muxed_region
 for Super-IO accesses

3.16.74-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net>

commit 8c0826756744c0ac1df600a5e4cca1a341b13101 upstream.

Super-IO accesses may fail on a system with no or unmapped LPC bus.

Also, other drivers may attempt to access the LPC bus at the same time,
resulting in undefined behavior.

Use request_muxed_region() to ensure that IO access on the requested
address space is supported, and to ensure that access by multiple drivers
is synchronized.

Fixes: 8d5d45fb1468 ("I2C: Move hwmon drivers (2/3)")
