Kernels up to 4.16 didn't exhibit this problem

Contrarily to bug 198071, I don't seem to experience any particular problem in functionalities.

After a looong bisect session, it seemingly is due to 5a8361f7ecceaed64b4064000d16cb703462be49

Actually, sorry Erik, I just realized this isn't a regression (something that previously was working, now doesn't anymore).. but actually a fix leading to the previously never initialized piix4_smbus to *start to do something at all*

I compiled 4.18 with acpi_gbl_execute_tables_as_methods (aka acpi_gbl_parse_table_as_term_list) set to FALSE, restoring previous behavior.. And I noticed where there always existed an acpi warning about conflicting SystemIO range with \_SB.SMB0 OpRegion, there now was the SMBus popping up.

Well, in the meantime I'll go with module_blacklist=i2c_piix4
