iirc the reason for that was that someone could load an old ISA SCSI controller
later as a module and it needs to handle that. Perhaps make it dependent
on CONFIG_ISA ? But even that would not help on distribution kernels.
Another way would be to check in PCI systems if there is a ISA
bridge and for others assume ISA is there.
