parport: quickfix the proc registration bug
Ideally we should have a directory of drivers and a link to the 'active' driver. For now just show the first device which is effectively the existing semantics without a warning. This is an update on the original buggy patch that I then forgot to resubmit. Confusingly it was proposed by Red Hat, written by Etched Pixels fixed and submitted by Intel ...
