The patch titled
tipar oops fix
has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is
tpar-oops-fix.patch
See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find
out what to do about this
From: Daniel Drake <dsd@xxxxxxxxxx>
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.
