[PATCH] 2.4 make hpzx1 fake pci device safer

   The fake PCI devices created in the 2.4 zx1 machvec provide PCI-like
config space access to the chipset.  However, there are some registers
in there that have side effects that you don't just want to stumble
across.  These are all out beyond the configuration header space, so
nothing should rely on them.  This patch prevents access to the
dangerous one that you'd touch looking through /proc/bus/pci.  You can
probably still shoot yourself in the foot, but you shouldn't be able to
do it by reading through the proc files.  2.6 has removed these fake
devices, so the patch is not applicable.  Thanks,

	Alex
