Err, there's no need to break the kernel config. Just have the kernel DTRT if both ath and pci are enabled using something like: sys/dev/ath/if_ath_pci.c ath pci in sys/conf/files. You can still have an if_ath_pci.ko module with this arrangement. This is what almost all other drivers due that have multiple bus backends. -- John Baldwin
