i2c-parport-light: Don't register a platform device resource

The i2c-parport-light driver isn't a real platform driver, so it
should not instantiate platform devices with resources. The resource
management system can't cope with colliding resources, and we are
likely to create such a colliding resource.

So, better just try to grab the I/O ports we need right at module
initialization time, and bail out if we can't. It has the added
benefit that the module will no longer load if it isn't going to work,
which is definitely more user-friendly.
