I've just checked full-history-linux. It came from this commit:

Author: Osamu Tomita <tomita@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Wed Mar 26 21:38:14 2003 -0600

    [PATCH] Complete support for PC-9800 sub-arch (9/9) SCSI

    This is the patch to support NEC PC-9800 subarchitecture
    against 2.5.65-ac4. (9/9)

    SCSI host adapter support.
     - BIOS parameter change for PC98.
     - Add pc980155 driver for old PC98.
     - wd33c93.c update error handler for eh_*.
     - wd33c93.h register to int for PIO mode.

But the driver was removed again about on year later:

commit 36f51e495878ff38d639fe3109a6cbaba6c4f2be
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Thu Jun 17 19:33:53 2004 -0700

    This removes the files orphaned by the earlier PC9800 removal

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
