For multiplatform kernels where CONFIG_ATARI_ROM_ISA is not set,
at least isa_sex must be set correctly to allow for correct I/O

Thanks for your patch!

I find it strange that you set isa_sex, but not isa_type?

Yes, as I said this is only to ensure isa_sex has the correct value (0) so isa_readw() resolves to in_le16() for the Atari IDE driver after the change at the end of the first patch. Might have been better to rather say

int isa_sex=0;

at the start of setup_mm.c ... or rely on that variable being initialized as zero anyway.

However, this is inside the CONFIG_ISA && MULTI_ISA block, so
what kind of ISA does this correspond to?

No ISA at all in that case, but since we have to route all readw() calls through isa_readw() for the sake of generality if we want to support Q40 ISA and Atari MMIO in the same kernel image, we need to make sure isa_readw() does the right thing on Atari if CONFIG_ISA is set.

I know io_mm.h says it's about various ISA bridges, but as I found out, drivers using only MMIO are also affected by these definitions.

'Maze' does not begin to describe it, 'mess' might be getting closer, but I can't see how we would avoid use of definitions in io_mm.h by non-ISA drivers.

Cheers,

	Michael
