I want to get rid of au1000_generic.[ch] eventually or at least all of
its contents
except the static mapping and resource allocation functions, which are board-
independent.  On the other hand these are so short that I opted to
just duplicate
them into the xxs1500_ss.c and db1xxx_ss.c (other patch) files.  The db1xxx_ss
(for the Alchemy demoboards) is supposed to be an example on how to set up
PCMCIA on Alchemy SoCs.

Danke,
