hwmon: (f71805f) Use request_muxed_region for Super-IO accesses



Super-IO accesses may fail on a system with no or unmapped LPC bus.

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffffbffee0002e
pgd = ffffffc1d68d4000
[ffffffbffee0002e] *pgd=0000000000000000, *pud=0000000000000000
Internal error: Oops: 94000046 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
Modules linked in: f71805f(+) hwmon
CPU: 3 PID: 1659 Comm: insmod Not tainted 4.5.0+ #88
Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT)
task: ffffffc1f6665400 ti: ffffffc1d6418000 task.ti: ffffffc1d6418000
PC is at f71805f_find+0x6c/0x358 [f71805f]

Also, other drivers may attempt to access the LPC bus at the same time,
resulting in undefined behavior.

Use request_muxed_region() to ensure that IO access on the requested
address space is supported, and to ensure that access by multiple
drivers is synchronized.
