Subject: [06/93] hwmon: (w83781d) Request I/O ports individually for probing

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Jean Delvare <khali@...ux-fr.org>

commit b0bcdd3cd0adb85a7686b396ba50493871b1135c upstream.

Different motherboards have different PNP declarations for
W83781D/W83782D chips. Some declare the whole range of I/O ports (8
ports), some declare only the useful ports (2 ports at offset 5) and
some declare fancy ranges, for example 4 ports at offset 4. To
properly handle all cases, request all ports individually for probing.
After we have determined that we really have a W83781D or W83782D
chip, the useful port range will be requested again, as a single
block.

I did not see a board which needs this yet, but I know of one for lm78
driver and I'd like to keep the logic of these two drivers in sync.
