Andriy,

Does this issue also cover the situation where if a kernel is built
with ichsmb *and* nfsmb, and is run on an NForce2/3/4 board, the
ichsmb driver is chosen/bound to one of the two SMBus devices,
when in fact nfsmb should bind to both?  (Only after removing ichsmb
from the kernel configuration did nfsmb bind to both).

Just curious -- thanks!
