Cleaning up the entire isdn code certainly will, but that particular problem is in fact much more limited. The function in question is declared, along with several other also much too generically named ones, in drivers/isdn/sc/card.h which is included nowhere outside drivers/isdn/sc. So these are really private functions of the SpellCaster driver which could easily be renamed. OTOH good old SpellCaster was an ISA card, and the sc driver depends on the deprecated I4L framework. I wonder if it's worth any effort.
