If I read correctly, there should not be a need for the if, but do the
outb_p() call unconditionally. In i801_access, this is guarded by
(hwpec || block), and we are in the block case anyway.

So now, with this testm you won't disable SMBAUXCTL_E32B after every
transaction, which causes problems according to the comment above.

Cheers,
Benjamin
