i2c-amd756.c, i2c-amd8111.c and i2c-nforce2.c looks very similar for me.
Differences between i2c-amd756 and i2c-nforce2.c/i2c-amd8111.c in
pair ioctl.

Sorry, i can make this only tomorow.

Burp. I guess, nForce3 have the overlapped regions, it`s not a problem
SMBus v1.0 vs SMBus 2.0 at bus resource allocation time. In any time,
i`m too lame to talk about this now :)
