Well actually its one of those things that needs writing cleanly but
currently appears in its own form in some EISA drivers
EISA slots are I/O mapped at 0x1000, 0x2000, 0x3000, 0x4000 -> 0x8000
The ID port is at base+0xc80
Configuration data follows at base+0xc84, 0xc88 ...
I would assume the 320 byte buffer is providing this same data block, and
maybe more but I don't know the details. I thought EISA boards had gone
away
