Btw, to answer Ingo about why I did it, while we talked about 
blacklisting hw, the problem with blacklist is it's never complete 
enough, plus OSS matches also on subsystem IDs, so we can't blacklist 
unless we disable subsystem checks too.

This ensures only one driver will get it, and I'll change OSS to remove 
the sndstat symlink so it should only be probed when the OSS media node 
is created, eventually forcing an opendir() on /dev/audio first to make 
sure OSS it picked up last.
