       name
           name to associate with the device

DESCRIPTION
       This function is similar to parport_register_device, except that it locates a device by
       its number rather than by the port it is attached to.

       All parameters except for devnum are the same as for parport_register_device. The return
       value is the same as for parport_register_device.
