Subject: modular floppy broken in 2.5.3

Trying to modprobe it yields

[root@dolphin root]# modprobe floppy
/lib/modules/2.5.3/kernel/drivers/block/floppy.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.5.3/kernel/drivers/block/floppy.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.5.3/kernel/drivers/block/floppy.o failed
/lib/modules/2.5.3/kernel/drivers/block/floppy.o: insmod floppy failed

 and dmesg says

inserting floppy driver for 2.5.3
Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 1.44M
floppy0: Floppy io-port 0x03f0 in use

I haven't been using floppy.o for some times so I can't tell
 when this broke. I'll give recent 2.5.x kernels a spin and
 report (if nobody provided other suggestions).

Thanks,
