Summary:                    [patch] Support for generic HFC-4S cards
Description: 
A patch to add some basic support of other HFC-4S -based PCI cards (such as
the ones made by Junghanns). 

Status: gets rid of the echo canceller messages when not needed, but still
needs work.

Specifically:
* It adds too broad a range of cards (which also include bero.net cards) 
* The range may include some 2-ports cards, which will probably not work.

Not yet tested to work, though it it is at least configured.

Sorry for the delay.

Timing issue has indeed been resolved. However I get poor results trying
to connect it to an Astribank BRI I have here (running DAHDI as well).

Issues:

1. I get the impression that "TE" and "NT" are mixed. dahdi_scan seems to
call my TE spans "NT" and vice versa.

2. I can't get layer 1 working from the NT ports to TE ports on my
Astribank.

3. Layer 1 does work well between TE ports on the card and NT ports on my
Astribank. However if I disconnect the cable there I get yellow alarm
rather than a red alarm.

Anyway, while the code is not functional, it seems safe enough to include
the extra PCI IDs. Unless someone is concerened about the conflict with
mISDN.
