Subject[PATCH 2.5.60 2/9] Update parport class driver to new module loader API.
Changes to the parport class driver to allow removal of depricated
check_region() and MOD_INC_USE_COUNT/MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT methods.

Also fixed an allocate race in parport_register_port(). The old code would
lock the portlist to find the next parallel port device number to use.
After figuring this out, the list would be unlocked to do all the memory
allocations for the new device. After the new parallel port device
data structures were all setup, parport_register_port() would re-lock
the portlist to insert the new device. But, it would not check to make
sure that some other code didn't already install a device with the
same number. I changed the code to, after all device setup, lock
the list, find the number, update the members that need the number
and then insert the device into the list all on same list lock round-trip.
