Config historycally generates -1 for "port auto" or "port?" and
-2 for "port none" it not generates this values for other cases, so where
you find too many of them?

I don't thin this values require any checking, they control mainly
diagnostic printout form and maybe conflicts.

The reason of fix was that I tired of kernel output lines like:
sbxvi0 at 0x0 ...
(I don't have SB16 at port 0 :-)

When I add "port?" to sbxvi0 line (really it is autoconfigured from sb0
address) I see even worse variant:
sbxvi0 at 0xffffffff ...

After my fixes it finally prints:
sbxvi0 at ? ...
(maybe change "?" to "auto" here? What fo you think?)
