Re: [PATCH] x86: fix problems due to use of "outb" to port 80 on some AMD64x2 laptops, etc.

Note, however, that your code doesn't deal with io_delay()'s in the bootcode (arch/x86/boot) at all, nor (obviously) io_delay()'s in bootloaders. In the boot code, access to DMI data is NOT available (wecan't even use the INT 15h mover if we want to continue to supportLoadlin.)

Correction: DMI data are at least supposedly available via the PNPBIOScalls specified in the SMBIOS spec.
