Sorry, my bad.

The ad1889 ALSA driver was not present before 2.6.14 and therefore not
on my original list.

Below is an updated patch that also schedules SOUND_AD1889 for removal.

This patch schedules obsolete OSS drivers (with ALSA drivers that
support the
same hardware) for removal.

Scheduling the via82cxxx driver for removal was ACK'ed by Jeff Garzik.
