I had an older patch to remove the addin mode for footbridge,
which nobody is using any more, and I found a few other small
cleanups that are worth doing here.

Footbridge is now the only platform with a custom __virt_to_bus()
for ISA DMA, and a custom phys_to_dma() for PCI devices. Both
just add a fixed offset, so there is probably a better way
of doing the same without a custom helper function.

I finally managed to give this a go on my netwinder using v2 of patch
5/4 (!), and the box booted nicely.

Note that apart from the serial console, everything I'm using on this
box is PCI (I tried to enable sound and failed, probably because I
can't select CONFIG_ISA anymore on this machine).
That tends to mean, therefore, that the statement "CONFIG_ISA is for
add-in cards" is wrong, because it's caused a user-visible regression
by killing sound support on Netwinders!
To some extent, yes. Adding this allows me to peek at some of the ISA
soundcards:

 	  Say Y here if you intend to run this kernel on the Rebel.COM
 	  NetWinder.  Information about this machine can be found at:
However, the Waveartist driver has gone the way of the dodo (together
with the rest of the OSS support in 4.15), and it isn't obvious to me
whether one of the several SoundBlaster drivers is appropriate on this
machine.

I also cannot say I deeply care, to be honest.
