Agreed. I had the same reaction, but as the patch should basically be a 
no-op, it looked safe, even if non-optimal.

Looking at parport_gsc_private, pword, readIntrThreshold and 
writeIntrThreshold also look unused.

My own goal is to remove the 'pci_free_consistent()' call in order to 
remove a deprecated API.

As said, I can not compile this driver.
I could send a blind fix that axes 'pci_free_consistent()' and remove 
some fields in parport_gsc_private, but I'm not sure that it is the best 
way to go.

Do you prefer to look at it by yourself or do you prefer to compile test 
my trials?
