Ah, right.  Thanks for tracking that down.  I forgot to factor out
isapnp_to_pnpid() and pnpid32_to_pnpid() (and acpi_ex_eisa_id_to_string()
for that matter, though that's buried in the ACPI CA)-- they're really
doing the same thing and we should only need one copy (plus the CA
one).

Hmmm...  that sounds harder.  I'll read over it again and see if I
can figure anything out.
