Please add a short snippet to i386/README-Drivers as well and then commit
the whole lot; the ChangeLog addition should perhaps look like this:
[current date] Stefan Siegl <stesie@brokenpipe.de>
* i386/linux/configure: Regenerate.
* i386/linux/device-drivers.h.in: Likewise.
* i386/linux/configure.ac (AC_PCMCIA_OPTION): New function.
(--enable-pcmcia-isa): New configuration option to enable ISA-bus
support in the pcmcia core.
* doc/mach.texi (Configuration): Briefly document the new configuration
option.
* i386/README-Drivers: Likewise.
... compared to yours:

This means: group together (i.e. without new-lines in between) stuff that
belongs together (the new option and its documentation) and
(chronologically) _after_ that (which will be _above_ in the ChangeLog)
the regeneration of the compiled files. You could even do the actual
patch and the regeneration of the files as separate commits (also to make
sure that the regenerated files have more recent time stamps -- no idea
if cvs deals with that correctly otherwise).

Thomas
