First of all, this patch is in conflict with tty-next AFAICS.

Second, what card w/o parport should do in parport_serial?

Third, this patch brings more mess: either you should remove the code
from 8250_pci, or do not add it here. See below.

it looks like the mentioned patch mistakenly added it to blacklist by
unknown reason.

Feels to me like NAK to this one.

And btw, you missed s letter in the model name across the code and I
don't see any of cards there listed with numports == 0.
