Udo, I'm not sure what exactly Gigabyte changed (I don't know what the PNP
resources were like with the previous BIOS) but it still doesn't look correct
to me: they are declaring a resource at 0290-0294 while it doesn't make sense
for the IT87xxF. That being said, these declarations would at least make it
possible to declare 0290-0297 as the IT87xxF device resource and only requests
ports 0295-0296 when the driver attaches. That would be a mix between the
2.6.23 and 2.6.24 variants of the it87 driver, that makes IMHO more sense than
what we did in 2.6.24.

But OTOH there are at least 2 other boards out there that don't have a newer
BIOS available. Until Gigabyte release a public BIOS update for each affected
board, we have to leave the it87 driver as it is now.
