3.3R and then to -current. The pccard support has been left in the
driver, but is presently non-functional because we are using the
isa_compat layer for the moment.

These drivers were cloned from the ed and ep drivers back in 1994
when PCMCIA cards were a very new thing and we had no other support
for such devices. They treated the PCIC (the chip which controls the
PCCARD slot) as part of their device and generally hacked their way
to success. They have significantly bit-rotted relative to their
ancestor drivers (ed & ep) and they were a dead-end on the evolution
path to proper PCCARD support in FreeBSD.
They have been terminally broken since August 18 where mdodd forgot
them and nobody seems to have missed them enough to fix them since.
I found no outstanding PRs against these drivers.
forgot to do when he converted it to newbus.
Note: make *sure* to remove any old joy.o object files from your kernel
build directories in order to be sure the joy driver is properly recompiled.

Note to self; when converting a driver to newbus, the foodriver bits
must be removed from sys/i386/isa/isa_compat.h

- Generally clean things up.
- PnP now supported.
Will convert to bus_space, ifmedia and add a DEVICE_IDENTIFY() method
for autodetection. As it stands
device ex0 at isa0
should find a card if one is present.
I feel less dirty now.
work. Be more verbose when one cannot allocate IRQ, et al since this
is a common configuration problem. The cards have the IRQ soft wired
into their BIOS and do not try to do collision detection. This can
cause problems when this IRQ is the same as another card/device.
The PNP hasn't been tested. My PNP board is in a deployed system.
I'll sneak in testing of it sometime later. I've been able to mount
the 3.3R cdrom that arrived today and access files off it.

new system is integrated with the ISA bus code more cleanly and allows
the future addition of more enumerators such as PnPBIOS and ACPI.
This commit also enables the new pcm driver since it is somewhat tied to
the new PnP code.
had a quirk that made a shim rather hard to implement properly and it was
just easier to convert the drivers in one go. The changes to the
buslogic driver go beyond just this - the whole driver was new-bus'ed
including pci and isa. I have only tested the EISA part of this so far.

i386 platform boots, it is no longer ISA-centric, and is fully dynamic.
Most old drivers compile and run without modification via 'compatability
shims' to enable a smoother transition. eisa, isapnp and pccard* are
not yet using the new resource manager. Once fully converted, all drivers
will be loadable, including PCI and ISA.
(Some other changes appear to have snuck in, including a port of Soren's
ATA driver to the Alpha. Soren, back this out if you need to.)
This is a checkpoint of work-in-progress, but is quite functional.
The bulk of the work was done over the last few years by Doug Rabson and
Garrett Wollman.
