The Comedi core module doesn't need support for PCI, USB or PCMCIA.
Only the low-level Comedi drivers need it. Split the support for these
bus types out of the core "comedi" module and into new modules,
"comedi_pci", "comedi_usb", and "comedi_pcmcia".
1) staging: comedi: comedidev.h: remove dummy PCI support functions
2) staging: comedi: comedidev.h: remove some #ifdefs
3) staging: comedi: split out PCMCIA support into new module
4) staging: comedi: split out USB support into new module

Ian,
Is this really necessary?
The pci, usb, and pcmcia support is already conditionally compiled in.
The support does get added to the main comedi module instead of
as separate modules but that shouldn't be a problem.
Well a lot of potentially unused module space could get pulled in if
using a stock distro kernel. For example, the USB dependencies amount to
over 200k. Not so bad for the others, especially PCI where the code is
built in anyway.
