thanks Rene! I've added your patch to x86.git. I changed a few things ontop of it, see the additional changelog and delta patch below.

"appropriated it", more. Definitely not going to forgive you for deleting that comment.

 void native_io_delay(void)

That's the clumsy bit. native_io_delay() used to be an inline outb, now it's a switch. Yes, sure, versus an indirect call it's not actually worse, except as an uglification.

-#ifndef CONFIG_UDELAY_IO_DELAY
-static int __init dmi_alternate_io_delay_port(const struct dmi_system_id *id)
+static int __init dmi_io_delay_0xed_port(const struct dmi_system_id *id)
 {
-       printk(KERN_NOTICE "%s: using alternate I/O delay port\n", id->ident);
-       io_delay = alternate_io_delay;
+       printk(KERN_NOTICE "%s: using 0xed I/O delay port\n", id->ident);
+       io_delay_type = CONFIG_IO_DELAY_TYPE_0XED;
+
        return 0;
 }

This isn't correct. DMI shouldn't override the CONFIG choice or someone with matching DMI will have a defective CONFIG option. That's why I put all of it inside #ifndef.

Rene.
