[PATCH] cs4236.c, kernel 2.6.11

Hello,

please consider attached patch for the cs4236.c driver module, located
in sound/isa/cs423x/ in the Linux 2.6.11 kernel.

Background: The card/chipset supports an external MIDI interrupt. By
default, this interrupt isn't used (because the isapnp mechanism chooses
a configuration without an assigned interrupt). If the user wishes to
explicitly select an interrupt via the mpu_irq parameter for such a
configured device, it doesn't work: The driver always shows:

isapnp MPU: port=0x330, irq=-1

(note the "irq=-1")

Problem: The driver only allows to set the irq if pnp_irq_valid returns
true for this particular pnp device. This, however, is only true if an
interrupt has already been assigned (pnp_valid_irq returns true if the
flag IORESOURCE_IRQ is set and IORESOURCE_UNSET is not set). If no
interrupt has been assigned so far, IORESOURCE_UNSET is set and
pnp_irq_valid returns false, thereby inhibiting the selection of a valid
irq.

Solution: Don't check for a valid (= already assigned) irq at the point
of calling pnp_resource_change.

Tested successfully on Linux 2.6.11.
