Sometimes this message is misleading.  In rtl8139match, if the call to
rtl8139reset fails, the adapter isn't marked active but the port has
already been allocated.  That means rtl8139match can be called
again for the same adapter, and this time the ioalloc will fail.

It might be helpful to print an error message in rtl8139reset
so you can see that it failed.
