   It's not probed from Space.c so it's probed after most isa devices
   anyway.

Yes it is, because com90xx init was being done via arcnet init.
Which in turn was being done in Space.c and looks to be SPECIFICALLY
being invoked after ethernet ISA devices are probed.

   You can't just veto all initcall changes because they are isa
   devices

I absolutely can.  Until someone can document the dependencies
I have every right to reject this change because it's effects
are unknown to actual users.

You can't even test your changes.
