The change create the lp devices even if there are no lp ports on
the system. I am not sure this is the correct fix, as this does not
automatically load the lp module, so you can have the devices, but
not the module required to use them. You also get device entries for
devices that may not be on your system. The funny part is that
before the change to always create them, running "modprobe lp" would
give you the lp devices for the ports you actually have on the
system, and CUPS would list them when adding a printer.
