I broke it with the io.h clean-up. It seems PCMCIA drivers rely on
__io() just being a cast. The easy fix is just restore that behavior for
PCMCIA:

diff --git a/arch/arm/include/asm/io.h b/arch/arm/include/asm/io.h
index df0ac0b..1b50c28 100644

 #include <mach/io.h>
+#elif defined(CONFIG_PCMCIA)
+#define __io(a)                __typesafe_io(a)
 #else
 #define __io(a)                ({ (void)(a); __typesafe_io(0); })
 #endif


Can you please test this change. This is what we'll have to do for 3.4,
but this is not really the right solution. io_base should not be a
virtual address here, but an i/o address in the range of 0-64K. We need
to move PCMCIA to the fixed i/o mapping I've posted:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg162547.html

I've been trying to get PCMCIA to work on spitz in QEMU to test out
fixes, but haven't had much luck. I'm not getting a card detected even
though QEMU thinks one is present.
