[PATCH 2/3] linux: Make failure to iopl non-fatal

[Adam Jackson]

We load the driver list, then enable I/O, then call driver probe based
on whether I/O enable succeeded.  That's bad, because the loaded
security policy might forbid port access.  We happen to treat that as
fatal for some reason, which means even drivers that don't need I/O
access (like kms and fbdev) don't get the chance to run.  Facepalm.

How about we just make that non-fatal instead, that sounds like a much
better plan.
