As suspected, the \_SB_.PCI0.HEC1.TCOS and \_SB_.PCI0.HEC2.TCOS
OperationRegions are just reserving the DMISCI_STS:

        OperationRegion (TCOS, SystemIO, 0x0464, 0x02)
        Field (TCOS, ByteAcc, NoLock, WriteAsZeros)
        {
            Offset (0x01),
                ,   1,
            DSCI,   1
        }

And  \_SI_.SIOR:

        OperationRegion (SIOR, SystemIO, GPBS, 0x30)
        Field (SIOR, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
        {
            Offset (0x0C),
                ,   27,
            LEDW,   0,
            Offset (0x18),
                ,   27,
            BLNK,   1
        }

this defines the LEDW and BLNK LED GPIOs which are written to in
firmware by _SST (System Status) ACPI controls.

The lpc_ich driver allows these ports to become accessible via port I/O
from userspace and since it shares these with the ACPI OpRegion
reservations one sees the messages.  One can either:

1. Ignore the warnings since they are just drivers complaining that regions are 
being shared 
2. Blacklist the lpc_ich driver
3. Use acpi_enforce_resources=lax to be less restrictive in the region sharing

As it stands, you have several options, personally, I would just ignore
the warnings.
