FYI, the warning is generated when the status from the PCMCIA bridge
indicates that the power is still applied to the socket, despite the
socket being instructed to power itself off.

IOW, something is interfering with the CPU's ability to communicate
with the PCMCIA bridge.  I'll let those more into this issue make
further suggestions.
