As explained in [0] currently we may leave SMBHSTSTS_INUSE_STS set, thus potentially breaking ACPI/BIOS usage of the SMBUS device. Seems patch [0] needs a little bit more of review effort, therefore I'd suggest to apply a part of it as quick win. Just clearing SMBHSTSTS_INUSE_STS when leaving i801_access() should fix the referenced issue and leaves more time for discussing a more sophisticated locking handling.
