The machine does not support DMI, I have mentionned that in the module.

I did that, but I have noprecise documentation about what the legitimate
values are, so I just compared the read value with 0xff. This prevents
the module from being loaded in qemu for instance.

Eurobraille/Iris power off.
The Iris machines from EuroBraille do not have APM or ACPI support
to shut themselves down properly. A special I/O sequence is
needed to do so. This modle runs this I/O sequence at
kernel shutdown.
This is only for Iris machines from EuroBraille.
