[media] winbond-cir: Fix initialization

The serial driver will detect the winbond cir device as a serial port,
since it looks exactly like a serial port unless you know what it is
from the PNP ID.

Winbond CIR 00:04: Region 0x2f8-0x2ff already in use!
Winbond CIR 00:04: disabled
Winbond CIR: probe of 00:04 failed with error -16

Hmm... Not sure if it makes sense, but perhaps the unregistering code
should be reverting serial8250_unregister_port(line).

EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL please.

But can't this be done as a quirk to the 8250 driver so that it just
does not bind to this device in the first place?  Wouldn't that make
more sense?

Ah yes.

Absolutely. However for such a quirk to work, it'll need to detect the
IR port. The problem is, based just the I/O ports for the serial port, 
it seems impossible. I've been banging my head against a brick wall 
trying to find a way to do this. As soon as you start looking at
the other I/O ports for the IR then it becomes clear, but you'll need
to glean from PNP what the port numbers are. Either that or some sort
of Super I/O detection.

The proposed solution means that a serial port will show up and then
automagically disappear (potentially) during boot, which isn't very
elegant.

When I discussed this a long time ago with Alan Cox (while he was still
the serial maintainer) I got the feeling that he was advocating
implementing a PNP ID based blacklist in the serial driver (apologies to
Alan if I misrepresented him now).

That seems to be a better solution (one that I never got around to
implementing myself).

(BTW, I'm on vacation with sporadic Internet access for two more weeks,
and when I return I'll be spending most of my spare time moving in to a
new apartment, expect slow turnaround times for replying to emails).

Can't do that anyway it may well be busy.

No - this leaks all the uart internal abstractions into the tree. We
really don't want that happening.

The right way to fix this (and a couple of other uglies) is to make 8250
on x86 scan for PnP ports *before* generic ports and to make a note of
any ports to skip on the PnP scan (so that the port poking scan ignores
them too)
