Put it in NOTES for arches that support it. Strictly it should be in MD NOTES, but MI notes already has lots of MD buses like pci and drivers like bge that depend on pci. Some MD NOTES have many nodevice lines to kill non-MI things in MI NOTES, but apparently none needs to kill pci or the hundreds of drivers that depend on it yet. > The bug is more if drivers aren't in NOTES at all.

The most broken drivers aren't even listed in sys/conf/files.*. Bruce
