Subject: [PATCH] tty/8250_pnp: serial port detection regression since v3.7

The InsydeH2O BIOS (version dated 09/12/2011) has the following in
its pnp resouces for its serial ports:

$ cat /sys/bus/pnp/devices/00:0b/resources
state = active
io disabled
irq disabled

We do not check if the resources are disabled, and create a bogus
ttyS* device. Since commit 835d844d1a28e (8250_pnp: do pnp probe
before legacy probe) we get a bogus ttyS0, which prevents the legacy
probe from detecting it.
