[PATCH] exit early in floppy_init when no floppy exists
modprobe -v floppy on a Apple G5 writes incorrect stuff to dmesg: Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 2.88M The reason is that the legacy io check happens very late, when part of the floppy stuff is already initialized. check_legacy_ioport() returns either -ENODEV right away, or it walks the device-tree looking for a floppy node.
