I'm not convinced that 'pcmcia' should be part of the device name.
Looking in /sys/bus/*/devices, 5 (ide, parisc, pci, pnp, scsi) do not
include the bus type as part of their name, and 2 (platform, serio) do.
usb host devices have 'usb' in the name, but target devices do not.
I think pcmcia should follow the majority here and leave 'pcmcia' out
of the name of the device.
