Also this whole patch seems rather pointless. It saves only
very little and turns the driver into a complete ifdef maze.
Also most
people will use 5212 code only, 5211 cards are on some old laptops and
5210, well i couldn't even find a 5210 for actual testing :P
FWIW, I'd bet dollars to donuts that distros will enable them all
together.
I would certainly _hope_ that distros enable everything -that is in the
kernel- that they can get their hands on, otherwise when you stick a
card in, it doesn't just work.
Distros definitely -do not- do this. Plenty of ancient ISA drivers are
disabled at build time, for example, in many distros.
