Upstream test device does not implement port 0xd1.

I remember sending a similar patch a while ago, but it seems like it didn't get applied.

One thing that does occur to me - we will have to keep testing RHEL5, RHEL6 and Fedora with their old test devices. This change seems backwards compatible, since instead of using port 0xd1 we're getting RAM size from the firmware, which should work for both cases.

Given all that, this patch looks good to me. ACK.
