This patch series removes the private duplicates of PCI definitions in
favour of generic definitions defined in pci_regs.h.

Why bother ? It's an ancient obsolete card ?

Do you even have one to test ?


This driver only uses some of the generic PCI definitons,
which are included from pci_regs.h and thier private versions
are removed from skfbi.h with all other private defines.

The skfbi.h defines PCI_REV_ID and other private defines with different
names, these are renamed to Generic PCI names to make them
compatible with defines in pci_regs.h.

All unused defines are removed from skfbi.h.

I sincerely doubt anyone on the planet is using this card any more.

Thanks Alan!

Stephen Hemminger is suggesting removal as well. Makes sense to me.

David!

What would you recommend the next steps are? Would like driver removed?

thanks,
