Subject: [PATCH] Revert "serial: 8250_pci: add support for another kind of
 NetMos Technology PCI 9835 Multi-I/O Controller"

commit 828c6a102b1f2b8583fadc0e779c46b31d448f0b upstream.

This reverts commit 8d2f8cd424ca0b99001f3ff4f5db87c4e525f366.

As reported by Stefan, this device already works with the parport_serial
driver, so the 8250_pci driver should not also try to grab it as well.
