Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Char: istallion, init+locking fixes (try 2)

Move brdp->iosize assignment in stli_initecp up a few lines to stop the
driver from requesting an I/O region of length 0.

Remove spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore from __stli_sendcmd as
all users of that function take the lock already.
