This means for this and other similar drivers that the driver is no longer
supported on architectures which support ISA but not the newly introduced
ISA_BUS. Affected architectures are alpha, arm, m32r, m68k, mips, powerpc,
and parisc.

A typical example is SCSI_AHA1542, which is no longer supported on those
architectures. It builds, but isa_register_driver() will be a dummy and fail.
Actually, this is true for _all_ drivers calling isa_register_driver().

I hope this is understood and doesn't cause any problems.

Thanks,
