Jeff Garzik I believe it was posted patches to do this. They were ignored
and the old ISDN code appears unmaintained. These drivers should IMHO
therefore be marked as BROKEN in 2.6.28 or Jeff's patch applied. Ditto
for the old cpq driver.
If Jeff's patch is wrong we'll find out if anyone even uses that code.
