    [ALSA] remove gameport/MIDI support · 05ccb0a8

    snd-intel8x0's gameport/MIDI code has quite a few problems:  the port
    addresses cannot be detected reliably (or not at all with newer LPC
    bridge devices), joystick port address 0x208 isn't supported, the MIDI
    interrupt isn't detected, PnP isn't supported, changing the port
    addresses in the LPC bridge configuration doesn't affect the devices
    in the Super-I/O chip connected to the LPC bus, and registering this
    driver for the LPC bridge PCI device prevents other drivers using the
    LPC's PCI id from loading later.
    
    All these problems can be cured by removing the offending code and
    using the proper modules for these devices (ns558/snd-mpu401) instead.
