[parisc-linux] parport_gsc unuseable

Hi all,

Since 2.6.12, the parport_gsc driver is not useable due to some changes in the parport driver.
A 'select PARPORT_NOT_PC' line in the Kconfig was added to every non-pc driver but the gsc one.

Patching the kernel with the attached fix makes the parport driver working again.

Happy printing :)

  Guy
