The present patch set doesn't seek to resurrect the ISA drivers. But I am 
trying to avoid regressions.

I have mixed feelings about the ISA drivers. ISA DMA support complicates 
things (it was never completed) and DMA seems to be the main obstacle to 
merging the two core driver forks.

I'd love to be able to get rid of the ISA drivers to be honest.  Given
that they appear to be gravely broken before your cleanups this might
be an opportunity to get rid of them.
