Examples for doing it not-quite-right are trivial.  For old drivers, it
it essentially takes a 1 line assignment:

diff -c2 syscons.c~ syscons.c
*** syscons.c~	Fri Oct  2 14:44:31 1998
--- syscons.c	Tue Oct 20 15:53:49 1998

  static int scprobe(struct isa_device *dev);

      scinit();
      sc_flags = dev->id_flags;

  }
  
! void
  scintr(int unit)
  {
--- 854,858 ----
  }
  
! static void
  scintr(int unit)
  {

Also, the declaration of scintr() must be changed to `#define scintr NULL'
in isa_device.h so that old config files don't break.  For new drivers,
just don't put interrupt vectors in config files or declarations for
interrupt handlers in isa_device.h.

I have converted about 50 drivers as above.

New drivers should also use `inthand2_t' interrupt handlers and not
cast to (inthand2_t *).  There is not enough infrastructure for doing
this cleanly - it currently takes larger, uglier code than assigning
to id_intr.

I have converted about 5 drivers to use a NetBSDish interrupt attach
function.  The larger, uglier code goes away, something like this:

diff -c2 bt_isa.c~ bt_isa.c
*** bt_isa.c~	Tue Oct 13 19:42:04 1998
--- bt_isa.c	Tue Oct 13 19:42:20 1998

  static	int bt_isa_probe __P((struct isa_device *dev));
  static	int bt_isa_attach __P((struct isa_device *dev));
- static	void bt_isa_intr __P((void *unit));
  
  static	bus_dma_filter_t btvlbouncefilter;
--- 43,46 ----

*** 196,199 ****
--- 208,212 ----
  	void		 *filter_arg;
  	bus_addr_t	 lowaddr;
+ 	int	result;
  
  	bt = bt_softcs[dev->id_unit];
***************
*** 282,298 ****
  	}
  
! 	return (bt_attach(bt));
! }
! 
! /*
!  * Handle an ISA interrupt.
!  * XXX should go away as soon as ISA interrupt handlers
!  * take a (void *) arg.
!  */
! static void
! bt_isa_intr(void *unit)
! {
! 	struct bt_softc* arg = bt_softcs[(int)unit];
! 	bt_intr((void *)arg);
  }
  
--- 295,301 ----
  	}
  
! 	result = bt_attach(bt);
! 	isa_intr_establish(dev, &bio_imask, bt_intr, bt);
! 	return (result);
  }
  
However, I think this doesn't actually work for drivers that that hack
on dev->id_intr (pnp and maybe pccard drivers).
