I forgot to mention:

If drivers that you use use the backward-compatibilty interfaces,
you'll see messages like this:

aic7870.o: uses pci_map_io() compatibility interface
aic7870.o: uses pci_map_int() compatibility interface
if_ep.o: uses pci_map_io() compatibility interface
if_ep.o: uses pci_map_int() compatibility interface
if_le.o: uses pci_map_io() compatibility interface
if_le.o: uses pci_map_int() compatibility interface

when linking.

These are not errors, they are statements of fact.  Please don't get
all uptight about it and ask whether or not the resulting kernel will
work; those messages are completely normal.  8-)
