This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Convert the remaining sysctl stuff to the new way of doing things.
the devconf stuff is the reason for the large number of files.
Cleaned up some compiler warnings while I were there.
cards like the Adaptec 284x that use EISA ID registers for identification
even when in stalled in non-EISA systems.
Use one format throught the files.
-Wall fixes.
be the beginning of our move to a more dynamic (configuration manager)

some devconf problems. Only the aic7xxx driver will be using this
interface until it is reviewed, revised and accepted as a good configuration
interface.
Adapt aic7770.c to use new eisaconf.
eisadevs.c is replaced by a linker set.
don't expect this to work yet.. but at least they're here..
(hey this cvs stuff is fun!)
activate with a line exactly like the isa line in the config file,
(but specifying eisa :)
patches to come..
