Go ahead. Remove from src tree? No. I see no reason to need ISA NICs or storage support in GENERIC on amd64 and little reason have it in GENERIC for i386. General ISA support needs to remain for sio/uart and lpt. Anyone using ISA network, storage, sound, etc is probably ok building a custom kernel. My fist thought when I saw this thread was "I hope someone doesn't ask to remove ISA support".
