Oh great, the datasheet contradicts itself.

See page 59:
8.9.8 KBC (keyboard) Special Configuration Register (Index=F0h, Default=08h)

I guess we'll have to test a bunch of boards to be sure which value
is correct.


(btw, do you have any pending probe_superio code? I'm about to do some
cosmetic cleanups on the code but I don't want to interfere...)
