✨ NAME ✨

module_isa_driver — Helper macro for registering a ISA driver. Periodt 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

module_isa_driver (__isa_driver , __num_isa_dev );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• __isa_driver — the isa_driver struct, bestie. That’s the thing you’re passing in 🫶
• __num_isa_dev — number of devices to register. Count ’em, slay 🔥

---

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

Helper macro for ISA drivers which do not do anything special in module init/exit. It’s giving “skip the boilerplate, we’re built different” ✨

This eliminates a lot of boilerplate code. Literal icon behavior 👑

Each module may only use this macro once, and calling it replaces module_init and module_exit. No cap — that part is important 💀
