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.
