On orpheus (Supermicro X10DAi) Linux wastes 1.4 seconds detecting the floppy controller. On pummeluff it is less noticeable with 0.6 s.

None of our systems have a floppy drive, so we should not build it into the Linux kernel.

Maybe it should be built as a module, in case a virtual machines get configured with a floppy controller.
So, when building the next Linux kernel, change the configuration.

Tested with Linux 5.1.1 with the driver built as module.
Sorry, something went wrong.

Keep it open until the change is in our default kernel, so that next 4.19 builder (might) remember it?
