PATCH to non-working xirc2ps_cs.c driver (kernel 2.4.10)

[Paul Sheer]

This driver tries to do media detection, failing
even if the media type is forced. This patch skips
media detection if the media type is forced, which,
I believe, is the correct behaviour for cards like
mine, where the media detection does not seem to
work.
