The big problem with the pci_driver conversion is that lack of device
ids in the driver. A few years ago I sent Achim a mail to ask if there's
a definitive list of used PCI ids, but didn't get an answer - maybe
the mail bounced. If we can't get this list we'd have to add something
like 500 PCI ids from the ranges currently probed, which seems rather
odd. gdth.h has various PCI_DEVICE_ID_ defines, maybe those are the
supported ones?
Well, gdth.c is the only user of PCI_VENDOR_ID_VORTEX (ditto for vendor
id 0x1119). Thus, gdth_search_pci() has all the info you need.
Put all the specific entries first in the PCI table. Then for the loop
entries, use (PCI_VENDOR_ID_VORTEX,PCI_ANY_ID) for the final entry and
disambiguate in the code itself.
If/when we get more specific information, it is then trivial to plug in.
Until such time, we are no worse off than we are now.
