I suppose I could create a device node for the Super I/O config
registers and use those instead of hardcoding it here.

Something to the effect of:

superio_cfg@4e {
	reg = <1 4e 2>;
	compatible = "smsc-lpc47m192-cfg";
};

I'm not sure if the name and compatible properties are appropriate
though.  Any recommendations?
