Patch: 2.1.85: Bugfix: LP device selection

When specifying lp devices to be associated with parport devices, lp.c says to
use parport=-1,0 to make it work like 2.0. However, this doesn't work as
advertised. It insists on makes lp0=parport0. The following *simple* patch
fixes this, at least for me. All it does it move one line lower in the file.
