This fill fix the following regression list entry:

Bug-Entry	: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11276
Subject		: build error: CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y causes gcc 4.2 to do stupid things

Patch		: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/22/364

with what I believe is a better fix than the one referenced
in the regression entry above.

These PNP header interfaces try to work in such a way that
you can reference some of them even if PNP is not enabled,
and the compiler was expected to optimize everything away.

Which is mostly fine, except that there was one interface
for which there was not provided an inline "NOP" implementation.

Once we add that, all of these compile failures cannot handle
any more.

pnp: Provide NOP inline implementation of pnp_get_resource() when !PNP

Fixes kernel bugzilla #11276.
