-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Daniel Drake <[email protected]>
If compiled into the kernel, parport_register_driver() is called before the
parport driver has been initalised.
This means that it is expected that tp_count is 0 after the
parport_register_driver() call() - tipar's attach function will not be
called until later during bootup.
