Thanks, I took the freedom to commit a slightly changed (and
hardware-tested) version of the patch in r5047.

I changed some minor cosmetics in via.c, added whitespace and missing
newlines, moved the PCI_SUPPORT checks to superiotool.h (and conditionally
add via.o in the Makefile), introduced a config option for PCI support in
the Makefile, and added pci.c which has the bare minimum, simple PCI
stuff we need.

I tested the committed patch on a VT82686A box, but please test on your
board nevertheless to be sure (especially so if you have a VT82686B).


Thanks, Uwe.
