The patch is to support ICH10 in kernel versions.
Actually, I need a help to find out how to access a GPIO reg in ICH family (say 8/9 in existing 2.6.23 version) under linux.
it would be great if any pointers to the sources in the kernel currently doing it.
Thanks in advance !!

this is for 2.6.25:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/878036
and this is for 2.6.24:
http://fixunix.com/kernel/335692-patch-2-6-24-pci_ids-patch-intel-ich10-deviceids.html
perhaps u reused these changes for 2.6.23?
