- ISA legacy functions
-
- On older kernels (2.2 and earlier) the ISA bus could be read or
- written with these functions and without ioremap being used. This is
- no longer true in Linux 2.4. A set of equivalent functions exist for
- easy legacy driver porting. The functions available are prefixed
- with 'isa_' and are isa_readb,
- isa_writeb, isa_readw,
- isa_writew, isa_readl,
- isa_writel, isa_memcpy_fromio
- and isa_memcpy_toio
-
-
- These functions should not be used in new drivers, and will
- eventually be going away.
