-	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 <function>isa_readb</function>,
-	<function>isa_writeb</function>, <function>isa_readw</function>, 
-	<function>isa_writew</function>, <function>isa_readl</function>,
-	<function>isa_writel</function>, <function>isa_memcpy_fromio</function>
-	and <function>isa_memcpy_toio</function>
-      </para>
-      <para>
-	These functions should not be used in new drivers, and will
-	eventually be going away.
