What about them?  PCI devices are supposed to be found via PCI configuration
space access.  Even in these machines where a PCI card can be falsly
probed as an EISA card, the standard PCI configuration mechanism works
to correctly find PCI devices.  VL cards are identified using ISA probe
techniques in all cases I'm aware of.  It just turns out that the 2842
uses a scheme that is very similar to that of an EISA card.
