 Hi
 
 The usage of vax_siedata has diverged over time - various callers are
 making their checks with quite different idioms.
 
 I've taken a quick pass to try to clean up the vax_siedata usage, and
 provide a convenient IS_SIE_MICROVAX() macro (among others)
 
 Diff is at:
 https://sync.absd.org/vax/vax-sie.diff (also via http:// for those who
 prefer that :)
 
 Plus prebuilt kernel from today's current at:
 https://sync.absd.org/vax/vax-sie.netbsd.gz
 
 Would you be able to test boot it to confirm it still avoids the lcg
 vaxstation issue?
 
 Also feedback/thoughts appreciated on the vax_siedata cleanup
 
 Thanks
 
 David
