In parport_attach, the return value of ida_alloc is unchecked, witch leads
to the use of an invalid index value.

To address this issue, index should be checked. When the index value is
abnormal, the device should be freed.

Found by code review, compile tested only.

No need to be noisy, right?

Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude for your valuable suggestions
on the patch I submitted. Based on your feedback, I understand that it is 
unnecessary to output error messages in this function. If this 
interpretation is correct, I will make the necessary modifications and 
resubmit the patch v2. Thank you for your response.

Best regards,

Ma Ke
