[PATCH] PNP: don't fail device init if no DMA channel available

["Jan Beulich" <jbeulich@novell.com>]

Most drivers for devices supporting ISA DMA can operate without DMA as
well (falling back zo PIO). Thus it seems inappropriate for PNP to fail
device initialization in case none of the possible DMA channels are
available. Instead, it should be left to the driver to decide what to
do if request_dma() fails.

The patch at once adjusts the code to account for the fact that
pnp_assign_dma() now doesn't need to report failure anymore.
