  [PNP]: Cleanup Kconfig

  This patch cleans up the kconfig options for the pnp subsystem.  It
  updates the comments and makes pnpbios proc support an optional
  feature.

  [PNP]: Add additonal sysfs entries
  
  This patch adds some aditional information to sysfs for pnp cards.  It
  should be useful for userland tools.

  [PNP]: Card matching code fix
  
  This patch updates the matching code to ensure that all requested
  devices are present on the card, even if they are in use.  It is
  necessary for some ALSA drivers to work properly because early vendors
  would have different sets of devices on the same card ids.  It is from
  Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>.

  [PNP] Move ID declarations
  
  This patch moves the PnP ID declarations to mod_devicetable.h like
  most of the other buses.  It is from Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>.

  [PNP]: Avoid static requests
  
  Recently many PnPBIOS bugs have been triggered by static resource
  information requests.  This patch makes an effort to further avoid
  making them.

  [PNP]: Disable resources fix
  
  Some PnPBIOSes do not follow the specifications with regard to
  disabling devices.  This patch preserves the tag bits, while zeroing
  the resource settings.  Previously we would zero the entire buffer.
  It has been tested and appears to correct the issue while remaining
  compatible with unbroken PnPBIOSes.

  [PNP]: Resource flags update
  
  This patch reorganizes resource flags to ensure that manual resource
  settings are properly recognized.  This fix is necessary for many ALSA
  drivers.  It also prevents comparisons between unset resource
  structures.  The bug was discovered by Rene Herman
  <rene.herman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>, who also wrote an initial version of this
  patch.  I made further improvements to ensure that the pnp subsystem 
  was compatible with this initial change.

  [PNP]: Fix Serial PnP driver
  
  The serial driver currently fails to unregister its pnp driver upon
  module unload.  This patch corrects the problem by calling
  pnp_unregister_driver and implementing a proper remove function.
