This is a pretty stupid and broken driver anyway. We should probably
get rid of it as there's no way it could actually function in its
current state.
I'm ok with dropping this one. For one thing it's a PCI driver that is
presented as a
legacy device... Ugly...
The main weird thing about it is that the base address is passed on the
command line, but it uses mmio and uses the passed in base address as
is, rather than ioremap()'ing it.
I did a quick look on the web to try and find a register level manual for the
hardware
this driver is "supposed" to work with. I found the Intelligent Instrumentation
website
at http://www.instrument.com but could not locate anything for a PCI-20006 or
PCI-20341 board.
I guess they've been discontinued and replaced by different modules.
This page <http://www.instrument.com/695.html> has a gif showing the
different modules it works with, although the gif file has a timestamp
from July 2005.
