Possible bug in ide_cs module

[Dave Flogeras]

Hello

I may have discovered a bug in the way PCMCIA handles an IDE drive.  I plugged 
a compact flash card (with a CF->PCMCIA adapter) into my laptop.  I did what 
I needed to do, then ejected the card with 'pccard eject'

After this, I noticed if I did a 'lsmod' I see:

Module                  Size  Used by
ide_cs                  9728  4294967295

It seems that the ide_cs usage count got (possibly) double decremented causing 
it to roll over.

My hardware is a Dell D820 laptop, and lspci reports this about the cardbus 
bridge:

03:01.0 CardBus bridge: O2 Micro, Inc. Cardbus bridge (rev 21)
        Subsystem: Dell Device 01cc
        Flags: bus master, stepping, slow devsel, latency 168, IRQ 19

Let me know if you need any more info/testing

Thanks,
