2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jean Delvare <khali(a)linux-fr.org>

This fix is the combination of the following two upstream patches:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=197027e6ef830d60e10f76efc8d12bf3b6c35db5
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=47c15532ddcd6818f51cb15f914d63864b3ee9ab

Only request I/O ports 0x295-0x296 instead of the full I/O address
range. This solves a conflict with PNP resources on a few motherboards.

Also request the I/O ports individually during device detection,
otherwise the PNP resource may cause the request (and thus the
detection) fail.
