This patch is removing some PCI idents from drivers that are currently
marked BROKEN on some/all architectures.  It seems counterproductive
to create even more work to get those drivers fixed.

Especially in the case of for eg, the advansys scsi driver, which
actually works for some people, even though it isn't updated to use
modern scsi layer interfaces.
