Subject2.6.9: io conflict between w83627hf_wdt and parport_pc
Hi,

the w83627hf WDT is no longer working on 2.6.9. The module refuses to
load with an error message:
|WDT driver for the Winbond(TM) W83627HF Super I/O chip initialising.
|w83627hf WDT: I/O address 0x002e already in use

/proc/ioports reports:
|002e-0030 : winbond_check

I found this function in parport_pc. After unloading parport_pc,
w83627hf_wdt still refuses to load:
|jo@bear:/usr/src/linux-2.6.9:0$ sudo modprobe w83627hf_wdt
|FATAL: Error inserting w83627hf_wdt (/lib/modules/2.6.9/kernel/drivers/char/watchdog/w83627hf_wdt.ko): Input/output error

And I'm even unable to inspect /proc/ioports now:
|jo@bear:/usr/src/linux-2.6.9:0$ cat /proc/ioports
|Segmentation fault

Everything worked perfect with 2.6.8.1 and 2.6.9-rc4-mm1
The box is a Tyan MPX S2466 w/ 2x Athlon MP 2000+.
