As your driver's callbacks aren't being called, that's probably why this
isn't working.
Please make sure your pci hotplug driver is working first. Try turning
on and off the power to the card slot (in the sysfs directory for the
slot) and see if that's working.
You also have failed to say exactly what pci hotplug controller you have
in your system, what is it? You have to have one, and the driver loaded
for it, for any of this to work at all.
