Add missing pci_disable_device() in error path in ark_pci_probe().
Do you have this hardware and tested your patch?
I'm sure there is a reason, why "pci_disable_device()" was commented
out in the original submission in commit 681e14730c73c...
pci_disable_device() call is disabled in many fbdev drivers because
calling it might prevent display from working.
Yeah I've recently hit some _really_ interesting regression report where
essentially fbdev driver and vgacon where managing the hardware
collaboratively. There's enormous amounts of "this shouldn't work like
that, but it is how it does" going on in old fbdev drivers, and what you
brought up is also what I immediately thought of.

This patch feels way too risky to me that we should apply it ...

Additionally I'm wondering why your patch doesn't show up in
the fbdev patchwork, although you added linux-fbdev mailing list.
Probably a vger issue.
