hostAP suspend/resume

Hello, I'm having trouble with hostAP PCMCIA suspend/resume on my 2.6.17
arm-linux pxa system. I can get my basic system up and running ok, but
not suspend/resume.

[root at monkey ~]#cardctl suspend 0
ds: ds_open(socket 0)
hostap_cs: CS_EVENT_PM_SUSPEND
wifi0: hfa384x_cmd: entry still in list? (entry=c167b2e0, type=0, res=0)
wifi0: hfa384x_cmd: command was not completed (res=0, entry=c167b2e0,
type=0, cmd=0x0002, param0=0x0000, EVSTAT=8000 INTEN=0010)
hostap_cs: Shutdown failed
ds: ds_release(socket 0)


[root at monkey ~]#cardctl resume 0
ds: ds_open(socket 0)
hostap_cs: CS_EVENT_PM_RESUME
wifi0: card already removed or not configured during shutdown
wifi0: Interrupt, but dev not OK
prism2_hw_init: initialized in 300 ms
wifi0: Port type setting to 1 failed
wifi0: hfa384x_cmd: entry still in list? (entry=c167b2e0, type=0,
res=-1)
wifi0: hfa384x_cmd: interrupted; err=-110
wifi0: MAC port 0 enabling failed
ds: ds_release(socket 0)

And (not suprisingly after the errors) -- the card no longer works.

If I then eject/insert the card it resets itself and works properly.

Richard Purdie had a similar problem on the OpenZaurus platform in April
2006, but there was no reply posted on the list. Also, his specific
problems seemed to be different (at least there were significant
differences in the log).

Any suggestions on what's going on? I haven't been able to find much out
there about the suspend/resume operation. A bunch more log information
is included below, fwiw. 

Thanks,
	Trevor
