Add -D / --dump-readable option which prints the Super I/O register
contents in human-readable form (e.g. "COM1 enabled" etc.) instead of the hex-table format from -d / --dump. Signed-off-by: Uwe Hermann <uwe@hermann-uwe.de> Acked-by: Uwe Hermann <uwe@hermann-uwe.de> git-svn-id: svn://svn.coreboot.org/coreboot/trunk@2795 2b7e53f0-3cfb-0310-b3e9-8179ed1497e1
