Because it's a HP board with NCR/SYMBIOS 53C400A chip. Windows driver calls
it "Symbios Logic 53C400A (HP Version)", suggesting that there might be more
compatible cards.
But search did not found any on the web, only C2502. So I'll rename it to
hp_c2502.

Looks like the original magic numbers (they came from the outb() calls, now
in ncr_53c400a_magic[]) are hardcoded in the 53C400A chip (and also DTC
chips).

HP C2502 card has some PALCE chips between the ISA bus and 53C400A. They
probably react to the HP-specific magic numbers (and don't pass the
"original" magic numbers to the 53C400A chip).

Yes.

Magic numbers from here were moved to ncr_53c400a_magic[].

I wonder if __setup is really required. I thought that it should go away and
module parameters used instead.

Looks like a good idea.
