[ALSA] cmipci: do not check for integrated FM/MIDI ports with chip version 37
Integrated MPU-401/OPL3 ports are available with chip version 39 and later, so we do not test for the port with version 37. Now that the test is known to work, we can again enable the MIDI port by default. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de> Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@suse.cz>

-The MPU401-UART interface is disabled as default. You need to set
-module option "mpu_port" with a valid I/O port address to enable the
-MIDI support. The valid I/O ports are 0x300, 0x310, 0x320 and 0x330.
-Choose the value which doesn't conflict with other cards. With
-CMI8738 and newer chips, you can use "mpu_port=1" to use a PCI port
-address that does not conflict with any other card.

There is _no_ hardware wavetable function on this chip (except for
OPL3 synth below).
