[This fixes a long-standing parport PNPACPI bug (see bugzilla
links below). I think it should go in 2.6.26.
This v2 patch removes an unnecessary line pointed out by
Tom Jaeger.]
When configuring the resources of an ACPI device, we first
evaluate _CRS to get a template of resource descriptors, then
fill in the specific resource values we want, and finally
evaluate _SRS to actually configure the device.
Some resources have optional fields, so the size of encoded
descriptors varies depending on the specific values. For
example, IRQ descriptors can be either two or three bytes long.
The third byte contains triggering information and can be
omitted if the IRQ is edge-triggered and active high.
The BIOS often assumes that IRQ descriptors in the _SRS
buffer use the same format as those in the _CRS buffer, so
this patch enforces that constraint.
The "Start Dependent Function" descriptor also has an optional
byte, but we don't currently encode those descriptors, so I
didn't do anything for those.
I have tested this patch on a Toshiba Portege 4000. Without
the patch, parport_pc claims the parallel port only if I use
"pnpacpi=off". This patch makes it work with PNPACPI.
