The problem has been finally resolved by modifying the ACPI DSDT.
I found that in /proc/ioports
| e800-e81f : 0000:00:1f.3
| e800-e80f : motherboard
therefore, smbus driver is trying to allocate e800-e81f (0x20) as
the hints from PCI bus, while the acpi driver `motherboard' had
only requested e800-e80f (0x10), which lead to cannot request
successfully.
Thus, I dumped the dsdt table and checked it, and modify
Name (SMBS, 0xE800)
Name (SMBL, 0x10)
to
Name (SMBS, 0xE800)
Name (SMBL, 0x20)
with iasl. then integrate the DSDT with initramfs. Everything
become well and do not need change kernel source anymore except
for the customized dsdt patch.
I also upload the customized DSDT table for ASUS M2400Ne laptop
to acpi.sf.net:

Cheers!
