New "ep" driver has separated probe/attach routine for ISA/EISA/PCI
devices, but they share same device name "ep".
Also, alpha's le_ioasic and le_tc share same device name "le".

Then,
Should we integrate "ahc" and "ahe" driver names to one shared name "ahc" ?
("ahc" and "ahe" is font-end of aic7xxx.c)
Or,
Should we leave "ahc" and "ahe" as they are ?

The reason why I want to see this is that I (and Pete Bentley)
maintain new aic7xxx driver ported from FreeBSD, and have a plan to
SEND-PR the driver.
