There is only one place in sound_core.c::init_module, where we
can return -EBUSY:
if(register_chrdev(SOUND_MAJOR, "sound", &soundcore_fops)==-1)
{
printk(KERN_ERR "soundcore: sound device already in use.\n");
return -EBUSY;
}
But there is also KERN_ERR message printed and I do not know of any
linux distributin, that disables displaying of messages of such loglevel
on console. Seems strange for me.
