Is it on purpose that "id_alive" isn't set if you are reconfiguring
a device in "isa/isa.c"?  Is there an entry point for "I'm about
to remove you"?

How completely thrashed out is registering a device with the kernel
(completely, including using Garrett's devconf routines) and then
de-registering it in order to completely clean up and register
again?

I may be missing something, but I don't see a set of entry points
that look like there are many people adding and removing device
drivers for debug.  I'd like the device driver code to remain
completely clean without any conditionals for the LKM.

If anyone has any pointers I'd appreciate them.

Peter
