The F71805F I/O resource structure needs not be a global variable,
as the platform core allocs its own copy of it anyway.

Convert the new f71805f hardware monitoring driver to use mutexes
instead of semaphores.

Convert the f71805f driver to use arrays of attributes. This shrinks the
compiled module from 12.0 kB to 9.6 kB. We certainly should do the same
for as many hardware monitoring drivers as possible.
This, together with a nice chip design by Fintek, makes this driver
very small, both in terms of number of lines of code and memory
consumption.

This is my f71805f hardware monitoring driver ported from lm_sensors
to Linux 2.6. This new driver differs from the other hardware monitoring
drivers in that it is implemented as a platform driver. This might not
be optimal yet (we would probably need a generic infrastructure and bus
type for Super-I/O logical devices) but it is certainly much better than
the i2c-isa solution.
Note that this driver requires lm_sensors CVS. I hope to get it
released as 2.10.0 soon.
