Hi,

this has the unfortunate effect that it's now a lot harder to add PCI
ID's to this driver at runtime via sysfs ;(

It does?  Normally you get 0 passed in that field, so you'll just not
get io ports enabled ...

Need to set use_driver_data to get non-0 passed in that field.

I think we want to condense the USE_IOPORT flag together with the other hardware feature flags, as suggested by Jeff Garzik. This would save some headroom and leave the pci device id table as it is.

Cheers,

Auke
