If the EC hangs, you'll notice it -- keyboard and mouse will stop
working. Just reboot your machine if that happens.

To see if there's a risk of this happening we need two things:
1. How does the content of /proc/ioports change by loading the binary
modules (save a copy and do a "diff")?
2. Can you load the new modules and the hdaps module ("modprobe
hdaps") simultaneously? What kernel messages ("dmesg") are generated
when you try to do so?

This will be valuable for a lot of people. Maybe you can post your
conclusions directly to ThinkWiki, so other users can add and update
it?
