Part of my purpose in suggesting the "ISA GPIO drivers" menu is my
intention to submit a couple more PC/104 drivers for merging into the Linux
baseline. Perhaps it may make sense to create subdirectories within the
"ISA GPIO Driver" to further organize drivers between "Super-I/O,"
"PC/104," and other ISA-based buses.
