esssolo1 does its own FM, so the code in question is attempting to let the driver support either external opl3 driver, or internal, more-functional FM.
In solo1_probe, an FM interface is registered.
So, IMHO there is a bug somewhere... Why register an FM interface in probe, and then check_region for another FM driver in _open? Is this intentional or really a bug?
