The transname stuff went in around 2.1.3x but was removed again around 2.1.4x, I think. This is a bit of a shame, as it would have been really useful for nfs-root boxes.
The ISA PnP driver only had its help merged from Alan's tree, I think. You can pick up the full patch from ftp://ftp.lmh.ox.ac.uk/pub/linux/pnp/pnp-0.3beta6.tar.gz.
For what it's worth, I'd like to see the PnP driver in 2.1.x soon. Aside from a couple of TODOs (better sysctl, among other things), it's pretty solid, and the driver mods are pretty straightforward.
But it's not my place to say what goes in... :)
Matthew.
