Subject[PATCH] parport_pc MODULE_PARM fix
[I hope sending this to just the linux-parport list is the right thing
to do; I'm assuming the maintainers read it and don't want individual
CCs as well.]

In the 2.6.10-rc releases parport_pc doesn't seem to want to take any
module parameters:

parport_pc: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [PCSPP,TRISTATE]
parport0: irq 7 detected

I need to pass parameters to the module to make it detect my port fully
(the printer doesn't seem to want to print more than a page or so
without an irq in use). With the patch below, against 2.6.10-rc3 I can
do so and get:

parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778), irq 7, dma 3 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,ECP,DMA]
