And if this get's accepted, I'd like to complete the separation by 
moving the PCI, USB and PCMCIA stuf out of the "comedidev.h" header into 
their own headers, which obviously means small edits to most of the 
low-level drivers to #include different headers. (But then, 
"comedi_pci.h" could #include <linux/pci.h> for example.)
