Philippe De Muyter 5a74db06cc floppy: request and release only the ports we actually use
The floppy driver requests an I/O port it doesn't need, and sometimes this
causes a conflict with a motherboard device reported by PNPBIOS.

This patch makes the floppy driver request and release only the ports it
actually uses.  It also factors out the request/release stuff and the
io-ports list so they're all in one place now.

The current floppy driver uses only these ports:

    0x3f2 (FD_DOR)
    0x3f4 (FD_STATUS)
    0x3f5 (FD_DATA)
    0x3f7 (FD_DCR/FD_DIR)

but it requests 0x3f2-0x3f5 and 0x3f7, which includes the unused port
0x3f3.

Some BIOSes report 0x3f3 as a motherboard resource.  The PNP system driver
reserves that, which causes a conflict when the floppy driver requests
0x3f2-0x3f5 later.

Philippe reported that this conflict broke the floppy driver between
2.6.11 and 2.6.22.  His PNPBIOS reports these devices:

    $ cat 00:07/id 00:07/resources	# motherboard device
    PNP0c02
    state = active
    io 0x80-0x80
    io 0x10-0x1f
    io 0x22-0x3f
    io 0x44-0x5f
    io 0x90-0x9f
    io 0xa2-0xbf
    io 0x3f0-0x3f1
    io 0x3f3-0x3f3

    $ cat 00:03/id 00:03/resources	# floppy device
    PNP0700
    state = active
    io 0x3f4-0x3f5
    io 0x3f2-0x3f2
