pnp: restore automatic resolution of DMA conflicts
To fix a 5-year-old regression, reverse changes made by commit
7ef3639 (PNP: don't fail device init if no DMA channel available).
As an example to show the problem, my sound card provides a
prioritized list of PnP "dependent sets" of requested resources:
dependent set 0 (preferred) wants DMA 5.
dependent set 1 (acceptable) will take DMA 5, 6, or 7.
...
dependent set 4 (acceptable) doesn't request a high DMA.
If DMA 5 is not available, pnp_assign_dma has to fail on set 0 so that
pnp_auto_config_dev will move on to set 1 and get DMA 6 or 7.
Instead, pnp_assign_dma adds the resource with flags |=
IORESOURCE_DISABLED and returns success. pnp_auto_config_dev just
sees success and therefore chooses set 0 with a disabled DMA and never
tries the sets that would have resolved the conflict.
Furthermore, this mode of "success" is unexpected and unhandled in
sound/isa/sb and probably other drivers. sb assumes that the returned
DMA is enabled and obliviously uses the invalid DMA number. Observed
consequences were sb successfully grabbing a DMA that was expressly
forbidden by the kernel parameter pnp_reserve_dma.
The only upside to the original change would be as a kludge for
devices that can operate in degraded mode without a DMA but that don't
provide the corresponding non-preferred dependent set. The right
workaround for those devices is to synthesize the missing set in
quirks.c; otherwise, you're reinventing PnP fallback functionality at
the driver level for that device and all others.
