problems with mtp , better to make a command-line option tocan switch off mtp device search on booting

[werner]

I get yesterday an acer laptop with big problems to 
install Linux

booting stopped with error messages like:

physmap_flash.0 failed claim ressource 0

L440GX flash mapping failed to find PIIX4 ISA bridge, 
cannot continue

Then the computer stopped, but not crashed, the cursor 
stopped to blink, but reboot
with CTRL-ALT-DEL didn't work, one had to press the reboot 
button

I recompiled the kernel with all MTP things switched off, 
and that booted.

However, normally it should be compiled everything in the 
kernel, and the kernel
during booting should manage it to see and to use what is 
existent in the computer
of the user, without to stick or to crash.

Probably that is an error already sine time in the kernel, 
not a recent regression.

Better to make a command-line option to can switch off mtp 
device search on booting
