The 53C875 should be found and should work in AS1200 in 5.0.  If its
not being found, that's a bug that needs addressing.  It does not and
will not ever work on a secondary hose of a multi-hose (like the
AS1200) machine on 4.x.

Can you send verbose dmesg and pciconf -lv output from 5.0DP2 to the
list?
