[patch] 2.4.15 drivers/block/floppy.c devfs out by one

No obvious floppy maintainer to send this to. Out by one bug in
register_devfs_entries, on machines that return floppy type 7 (IBM
Thinkpad i1200/1300 Model 1161-43M), floppy.o gets an oops while
evaluating table[table_sup[UDP->cmos][i]].

BTW, this breaks RH 7.x and Mandrake 8.x installs on this laptop.
