Attached is a patch to add support for the SMSC MEC1308 embedded

Unfortunately, the device ID it conflicts with another SMSC Super IO
chip,
the FDC37M81x. However, since superiotool does not really support the FDC37M81x in any really useful capacity, I think it's fair to just
disable
it for now.
Unless I'm mistaken, this patch brings the MEC1308 to the level of support the FDC37M81x had before your patch. I was just looking at the line count per chip, so maybe there is some key information I'm missing. Could you please enlighten me what "not really supported" means in this context? Thanks!
Huh, odd... I actually wrote the patch over a year ago, and was probably using the obsolete branch (before it got put back into coreboot/util). Clearly the FDC37M81x has support now. Should we just leave both of them enabled?
(apologies for the hasty commit, i had an immediate use case)
