Re: [PATCH v6 0/3] Add APNE PCMCIA 100 Mbit support

[Michael Schmitz <schmitzmic@gmail.com>]

Hi Alex,

thanks for clarifying.

There's a number of reasons why this might fail:

- card really needs the reset before even accepting the probe I/O,

- PCMCIA interface needs to be enabled before the probe (pcmcia_init() 
normally does that, but the card reset happens right at the start there),

- a probe read on a 16 bit card in 8 bit mode does appear to give the 
correct result.

I'll have to come up with something better - the CISTPL_CFTABLE_ENTRY 
config tuple ought to contain information about the IO path width 
somewhere. Just a matter of parsing it out without duplicating all of 
drivers/pcmcia/cistpl.c ... Any takers?

Cheers,

     Michael
