This parameter is intended to allow new kernels to work with old LKM binaries,
provided the revision ID is incremented whenever the PCI LKM interface is
changed. The revision ID does not at all protect against changes in data
structures accesses by the driver.
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.
1) Supports PCI to PCI bridge devices (and tries to initialise them,
even if the BIOS is brain dead).
2) Supports shared PCI interrupts. Interrupt handlers now MUST return
'0' if they found nothing to do, '1' otherwise.
New features tested with i486 systems based on the Intel Saturn and
a DEC 4channel Ethernet card only, but expected to work on most systems.
The option PCI_REMAP has been removed !
