[patch 01/15] serial: when guessing, check only active resources, not options

From: Bjorn Helgaas
Date: Fri May 30 2008 - 18:50:18 EST


Given a completely unknown PNP device, if it happens to have
a modem-like string in its name and it matches a COM port
address, we assume it's a modem.

We used to check the address against all the possible resource
options for the device. But the device is already configured
and enabled, so we only need to check the resources it is
actually using. If we matched an address that wasn't currently
enabled, we would fail anyway as soon as we attempted to touch
the device at that address.

This removes a reference to the struct pnp_dev.{independent,dependent}
fields, which I will soon make private to the PNP subsystem.
