Check whether /sys/class/pcmcia/pcmcia_socket/available_resources_io _and_
/sys/class/pcmcia/pcmcia_socket/available_resources_mem contain anything,
and if they don't, start pcmcia-socket-startup unconditionally.

Yes, regardless of its type, as long as the entries in
/etc/pcmcia/config.opts are sane.
