Blame the BIOS vendor. They requested _all_ runtime registers of the
Super-I/O chip, while they probably only need a few of them. This locks
Linux out of the chip, so the smsc47m1 driver can't access the
registers it needs.

(I guess you can also blame SMSC for using a single I/O range for many
unrelated things...)
