Some HP firmware leaves the SMCf010 IRDA device incompletely configured, or reports the wrong resources in _CRS. As a workaround, when we find such a device, try to auto-configure the device. This ignores the _CRS data, picks a config from _PRS, and runs _SRS to configure the device. This makes smsc-ircc2 work correctly with PNP resources (with no preconfiguration!) on all the machines I tested. I think Windows does something like this by default for all devices, so we should consider doing the same thing in Linux. This patch addresses part of the 2.6.22 regression: "no irda0 interface (2.6.21 was OK), smsc does not find chip" It fixes smsc-ircc2 PNP device detection on HP nc6000, nc6220, nw8000, nw8240, and possibly other machines.
