I tested this patch on a machine which does not have mwave hardware. The
driver was statically linked into the kernel. It died...

smapi::smapi_init, ERROR invalid usSmapiID
mwave: tp3780i::tp3780I_InitializeBoardData: Error: SMAPI is not available on this machine
mwave: mwavedd::mwave_init: Error: Failed to initialize board data
