+ * The SRM console *disables* the IDE interface, this code ensures it's
+ * enabled.
+ *
+ * This code bangs on a control register of the 87312 Super I/O chip
+ * that implements parallel port/serial ports/IDE/FDI. Depending on
+ * the motherboard, the Super I/O chip can be configured through a
+ * pair of registers that are located either at I/O ports 0x26e/0x26f
+ * or 0x398/0x399. Unfortunately, autodetecting which base address is
+ * in use works only once (right after a reset). The Super I/O chip
+ * has the additional quirk that configuration register data must be
+ * written twice (I believe this is a safety feature to prevent
+ * accidental modification---fun, isn't it?).
