OK. Problem is though it has to be taken care of before the devices are scanned, so that no device drops off or appears and confuses LB. If the lpc bridge were scanned before the sata one, it could be done then, but unfortunately it isn't. I've been doing it during ram init, but I imagine it could be done somewhere shortly thereafter.
Imho that function I placed the comment is called very very early, because it is static device??
I think I overlooked it, I'll have to check again.
PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_VT8237R_LPC please. Datasheet refers to it as lpc, as does the file name.
Hmm i tried to stick the to the name common in LB and in in PCIID
IMO, it needs to remain consistent one way or another. I still vote for LPC, since that is what the datasheet refers to it as and it's the main function of the controller. ISA is a dying breed, it's only on there for super io and sensor support. But either that or change the file name, doesn't really matter.
Ok I will rename and respin somehow. Perhaps tomorrow?

You don't have to remake the patch, just edit it. Perhaps even the committer can do it?
