:the codes for isa bus in pc32/i386: the arch-independent is in
:sys/bus/isa, and a folder under that, i.e. i386, is for i396-specific.
:But also found another folder in sys/platform/pc32/isa that is
:arch-dependent. should the sys/bus/isa/i386/* be merged to
:sys/platform/pc32/isa/?

    It probably could be merged, yes.

:also, the sys/bus/isa/pnpeat.c (an i386-dependent file in the
:arch-independent folder) seems not used anywhere, remove it?

:Thanks

    I believe that module is used.  All it does is eat certain PNP ids
    so the system doesn't complain about them.
