in README.Debian I could see :
CONFIG_ISAPNP is highly recommended to allow to automatically load some
important drivers.

This is wrong and only apply for old system using isa cards.

What would load modules like rtc, parport_pc and 8250_pnp then?
that's CONFIG_PNPACPI or CONFIG_PNPBIOS.
rtc, parport and serial port aren't on isa card but on LPC. So it isn't ISAPNP. Try to boot with pnpacpi=off and pnpbios=off, you will see that isapnp isn't used...



What is need is CONFIG_PNP, CONFIG_PNPACPI and CONFIG_PNPBIOS for
loading driver using LPC bridge (midi port, joytisk, ...).

Which data would these options provide, and where?

This will provide pnp data, so the same data than isapnp in the same place (/sys/bus/pnp/ )
