This is one of four remaining drivers using the ancient virt_to_bus() interface instead of the dma-mapping interface, making it incompatible with most modern machines. As nobody has cleaned this up, there is a high chance that this driver has no actual users. The chip was introduced in 1997 and only supports 32-bit legacy PCI. It was replaced by TSI148 in 2004, but that chip has since been discontinued, while a version of the older Universe II remains in production after 25 years. The vme_vmivme7805 board uses Universe-II, so this also gets removed in the process, but PCI add-on cards based on TSI148 can still work in theory. If there are users of the Universe-II driver after all, it is of course possible to revert this patch and fix it to use the dma-mapping interface like the tsi148 driver does.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
