First it depends on the config file. If the device is not enabled in the config file then don't turn it on. Com 1 being the exception..
Hm, I currently just turn on every supported Super IO device (FDC, Com1, Com2, PP, etc. etc.) in the ITE code. Should I check for some variables/#defines in the code and only conditionally enable them? If so, how do I do that? Or shall I simply continue to enable everything as you state below?
Generally though for superIO stuff if the kernel can find it then it can init it so just turning on the device so the base address shows up should be enough.
