I wonder what the easiest way to test this is... Parallel driver must get loaded before disk drivers, right? Should compiling in parallel driver work? Does a kiso (if yes, Tejun, could you point me to some doku and I can set up such an iso, I always wanted to have a look at that...) work?
That's an interesting idea. Of course, there's nothing specific to the parallel port about this problem, so it's always possible that other PNP devices could fall into the same trap. While such a sanity check (provided by your patch) probably is a good idea, I still think device specific IRQ preference could not only fix this one, but also prevent running into other similar pits in the future. Bjorn, could you have a short look at the updated patch I am going to attach. It's rather the same, but has more devices added and provides a possibility to add several preferred irqs to one device (not sure whether this is overdosed). This should lower the risk of running into similar bugs in the future significantly.
