>From your first mail, the chipset you use is a Q57, the datasheet says
that the GLB_SMI_EN is still there. So, what you should do is check
whether the SMI_LOCK bit is set. The following (untested) patch should
print the lock bit value:
diff --git a/ksrc/arch/x86/smi.c b/ksrc/arch/x86/smi.c
index d80b14b..97e6774 100644
