2.6.0-test11, PCMCIA,, Cirrus CL 6729 bridge not working

["Jani Vaarala" <flame@pygmyprojects.com>]

I've been trying to get my PCMCIA bridge to work with 2.6.0-test11, but 
without any luck sofar.
My bridge works perfectly with 2.4.X series kernels and pcmcia-cs-3.2.5 
kernel modules (i82365,
with module options: irq_mode=1 fast_pci=1). 

It is a PCI-to-PCMCIA bridge based on Cirrus Logic CL 6729 (rev 07). 

Is there a way to get it working under 2.6 series kernels ? (as pcmcia-cs is 
not going to be supported
for 2.6 series kernels).
