Yeah, serial should work, but superio.c is bogus.

No, I'm suggesting to not commit obviously non-working/broken code.
Instead, I suggest something like the attached patch for
work-in-progress commits, a small stub to make it compile, nothing more.

I fixed the LDNs in the *.h file and dropped all the broken stuff from
superio.c. Alternatively we might just as well drop superio.c completely
until a working version of it gets done (if the code can compile without
a superio.c being there).
