So is it reasonable to use the same kind of fixup approach that we do with
broken PCI devices? If the core code _really_ has to know about it it
does, else the driver fixes it up?

Excuses, excuses :) It all wants fixing. Until you can have half-witted
consumers plugging and unplugging PCMCIA devices at will, PCMCIA support
on embedded consumer devices in Linux just isn't worth having.
