probing of devices

Description

In i82371AB_ACPI_SMBusControler.probeDevices, the 8 possible smbus devices are 'probed'. However, this results in 8 exceptions in the DIMM class when the smbus is empty. Perhaps somehow the exceptions could be prevented, since it is only a probe.

Appears to work with these patches. Perhaps someone can apply them to cvs for me.

Uploading to the issue-list doesn't seem to work:
* The directory uploads is not writable.
* File copy failed: no directory configured, or it could not be accessed.

Anyway, the patches:
