pata_pcmcia client driver

[kiran vedere]

Hi:

I am working on an ARM Platform which provides a Compact Flash
Interface to read/write CF Storage cards. I implemented the CF Host
Controller and I am using the existing pata_pcmcia client driver to
read/write to a Compact Flash Storage Card.
However when I insert the Card I cannot see any ata block device which
I can use to mount the card. Below are the messages when I insert the
card (I enabled debug messages and also added my own).

I was able to use /sys/bus/pcmcia/devices/ to read some CF card
details such as Manf_ID/Prod ID, etc however there was no
/sys/bus/scsi entry available.

Do I need anything more to access the CF Storage card or I am missing
any of the steps in the process? Please clarify.
