Title:
  Change default of CONFIG_EISA_VLB_PRIMING

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Currently the Ubuntu kernels ship with CONFIG_EISA_VLB_PRIMING=y.
  This doesn't match the upstream default (n) and this is the help text:

          Activate this option if your system contains a Vesa Local
          Bus (VLB) card that identify itself as an EISA card (such as
          the Adaptec AHA-284x).

            When in doubt, say N.

  I noticed this actually changes the kernel behavior such that it
  forces the probing code to probe EISA slots even when it cannot find
  an EISA compliant mainboard.

  This manifests in a collection of warnings on every boot.

  [    0.985127] platform eisa.0: EISA: Cannot allocate resource for mainboard
  [    0.985845] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 1
  [    0.986526] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 2
  [    0.987213] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 3
  [    0.987899] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 4
  [    0.988586] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 5
  [    0.989273] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 6
  [    0.989961] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 7
  [    0.990646] platform eisa.0: Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot 8

  I think this config option should be changed to match upstream default
  for Ubuntu kernels.
