I thought about that but couldn't think of a "clean" way to split the ISA support out. Leaving the ISA code in ni_labpc.c and moving the common code out to something like ni_labpc_common.c makes the patch a lot larger and more difficult to review. How about taking the patches up to this one as they are now and then renaming ni_labpc.c -> ni_labpc_common.c and ni_labpc_isa.c -> ni_labpc.c in the next patch in the series?
