I think we still might need open- and close-callbacks here. Some drivers turn
on/off clocks on these operations and we can't simply move them to the
start/stop callbacks, because the clock might be turned off via DISABLECARD
which calls stop. And without the clock, a simple register access via
set_timeout might lock up the machine.
