MBIF (motherboard identification) is only used to print the name of
the board, it's not essential for the driver; do not fail if it's
missing. Based on Juan's patch.

Expose the raw GGRP/GITM interface via debugfs. The hwmon interface is
reverse engineered and the driver tends to break on newer boards...
Using this interface it's possible to poke directly at the ACPI methods
without the need to recompile, reducing the guesswork and the round trips
needed to support a new revision of the interface.

The behaviour is unmodified, this makes easier to override the heuristic (which
is probably needed for some boards).

On newer ASUS boards (e.g. P7P55D) the EC (that - among other things - is
responsible for updating the readings from the hwmon sensors) is disabled
by default since ASUS detected conflict with some tools under Windows.
The following patch checks the state of the EC and enable it if needed;
under Linux, native drivers are locked out from ACPI owned resources so
there's no risk of conflict.

Refactor the code of the new style interface around GGRP (enumeration) and
GITM (read) helpers to mimic ASL code. Also switch the read path to use
dynamic buffers (handled by ACPI core) since ASUS expanded the return buffer
(ASBF) in newer boards (e.g. P7P55D).

On newer Asus boards the "upper" limit of a sensor is encoded as
delta from the "lower" limit. Fix the driver to correctly handle
this case.

Asus boards have an ACPI interface for interacting with the hwmon (fan,
temperatures, voltages) subsystem; this driver exposes the relevant
information via the standard sysfs interface.
There are two different ACPI interfaces:
- an old one (based on RVLT/RFAN/RTMP)
- a new one (GGRP/GITM)
Both may be present but there a few cases (my board, sigh) where the
new interface is just an empty stub; the driver defaults to the old one
when both are present.
The old interface has received a considerable testing, but I'm still
awaiting confirmation from my tester that the new one is working as
expected (hence the debug code is still enabled).
Currently all the attributes are read-only, though a (partial) control
should be possible with a bit more work.
