floppy: request and release only the ports we actually use
The floppy driver requests an I/O port it doesn't need, and sometimes this causes a conflict with a motherboard device reported by PNPBIOS. This patch makes the floppy driver request and release only the ports it actually uses. It also factors out the request/release stuff and the io-ports list so they're all in one place now. The current floppy driver uses only these ports: 0x3f2 (FD_DOR) 0x3f4 (FD_STATUS) 0x3f5 (FD_DATA) 0x3f7 (FD_DCR/FD_DIR) but it requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 and 0x3f7, which includes the unused port 0x3f3. Some BIOSes report 0x3f3 as a motherboard resource. The PNP system driver reserves that, which causes a conflict when the floppy driver requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 later. Philippe reported that this conflict broke the floppy driver between 2.6.11 and 2.6.22. His PNPBIOS reports these devices: $ cat 00:07/id 00:07/resources # motherboard device PNP0c02 state = active io 0x80-0x80 io 0x10-0x1f io 0x22-0x3f io 0x44-0x5f io 0x90-0x9f io 0xa2-0xbf io 0x3f0-0x3f1 io 0x3f3-0x3f3 $ cat 00:03/id 00:03/resources # floppy device PNP0700 state = active io 0x3f4-0x3f5 io 0x3f2-0x3f2 Reference: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/31/162 Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Philippe De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be> Reported-by: Philippe De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be> Tested-by: Philippe De Muyter <phdm@macqel.be> Cc: Adam M Belay <abelay@mit.edu> Cc: Robert Hancock <hancockrwd@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
