Michael Tokarev 07563c711f [PATCH] EISA bus MODALIAS attributes support
Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and
(at least some) EISA-aware modules.

The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC):

 eisa:sTCM5093

and the in-module alias like:

 eisa:sTCM5093*

The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h
to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the
latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all
drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE
declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to
scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated.

There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used
by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those
maps are obsolete anyway.

The rationale for this patch is:

 a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias
    support, to unify driver loading

 b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel
    (who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows
    how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;)
