So that makes sense for the patch in this series which allows
deconfiguration of the ISA bus itself.  But this patch is just about
ISA serial ports - given that ARM does have ISA for now, and will
still be able to with a bridge it seems odd to disable ISA serial
specifically.

Come to think of it, the same applies to SH4, since it has PCI. So
I've put SERIAL_ISA back in for SH4, and updated the commit message to
explain that for now I'm only taking out SERIAL_ISA support for things
that clearly have neither ISA nor PCI support.
