However, we can save a lot of space by reorganizing pci/pcisupport.c in such a way to make it easy to drop text identifiers for the pci devices. I seem to remember posting one way to do it to -arch a while back. It was a sizable win on the images I was playing with. Anyone interested can look at the (now heavily outdated) patch and recreate it. phk suggested there be one massive table, but I used a table per device type. I'm uncertain as to what others think on that.
