: USB and pccard id information should be embedded in the drivers
: that support a given device just like PCI and EISA.  Just because
: NetBSD uses a generated external file and we inherited this code
: from them doesn't mean we have to follow their paradigm.

But it is embedded in the device drivers.  The devs stuff does is
give a nice, convenient, uniform way to do that.  Matching pccard and
usb devices is more complex than pci.
