[ Upstream commit 231ec2f2 ]

Usually all the distro will load the parport low level driver as part
of their initialization. But we can get into a situation where all the
parallel port drivers are built as module and we unload all the modules
at a later time. Then if we just do "modprobe parport" it will only
load the parport module and will not load the low level driver which
will actually register the ports. So, check the bus if there is any
parport registered, if not, load the low level driver.

We can get into the above situation with all distro but only Suse has
setup the alias for "parport_lowlevel" and so it only works in Suse.
Users of Debian based distro will need to load the lowlevel module
manually.
