The legacy eicon driver in drivers/isdn/eicon is the old one and will be
removed as soon as all features went to the new driver.
Anyway this old driver was never meant to be non-module.

This patch should do it.

I already send a patch to Linus and asked him to remove the
old driver in drivers/isdn/eicon.

The new driver in drivers/isdn/hardware/eicon will take over
for the Eicon ISDN PCI cards including a lot of new features.
