Fix a potential race condition when some hardware monitoring platform
drivers are being unloaded. I believe that the driver data pointer
shouldn't be cleared before all the sysfs files are removed, otherwise
a sysfs callback might attempt to dereference a NULL pointer. I'm not
sure exactly what the driver core protects drivers against, so let's
play it safe.While we're here, clear the driver data pointer when probe fails, so
as to not leave an invalid pointer behind us.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

My understanding of the resource management in the Linux 2.6 device
driver model is that the devices should declare their resources, and
then when a driver attaches to a device, it should request the
resources it will be using, so as to mark them busy. This is how the
PCI and PNP subsystems work, you can clearly see the two levels of
resources (declaration and request) in /proc/ioports for these
devices.So I believe that our platform hardware monitoring drivers should
follow the same logic. At the moment, we only declare the resources
but we do not request them. This patch adds the I/O region request
and release calls.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

This is a new hardware monitoring driver for the National Semiconductor
PC87427 Super-I/O chip. It only supports fan speed monitoring for now,
while the chip can do much more.Thanks to Amir Habibi at Candelis for setting up a test system, and to
Michael Kress for testing several iterations of this driver.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare
