I think there shouldn't be anything _inherently_ x86 specific about the drivers themselves although probably nobody uses Super-IO chips like these outside of the PC-compatible world. I do see that most (but not all) drivers for Super-IO controllers packaged in openwrt currently have a TARGET_x86 dependency, so I will submit v2 with the dependency added to these new packages.

The driver looks ACPI/x86-specific, please add target dependency or move the package definition to target/linux/x86/modules.mk.
