3.11.10.3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alan <gnomes at lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>

commit dace8bbfccfd9e4fcccfffcfbd82881fda3e756f upstream.

If loaded with isapnp = 0 the driver explodes. This is catching
people out now and then. What should happen in the working case is
a complete mystery and the code appears terminally confused, but we
can at least make the error path work properly.
