On second thought - maybe a better solution is to just inject the
field definitons into \_SB.PCI0.ISA and \_SB.PCI0.LPC.

The OperationRegion has to be in the proper device (eg, PX13), but the
Field() can go anywhere.  So, if the PIIX dsdt code had something
like:

       Scope (\_SB.PCI0.ISA) {
           Field (\_SB.PCI0.PX13.P13C, AnyAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
           {
                Offset(0x5f),
               , 7,
               LPEN, 1,         // LPT
                Offset(0x67),
               , 3,
               CAEN, 1,         // COM1
               , 3,
               CBEN, 1,         // COM2
           }
       }

then the isa devices could just access LPEN/CAEN/etc without requiring
an explicit path.
