No, the ranges above are for cardbus, not pcmcia. pcmcia usually
assign resources outside of this range, and 0x100 looks like a
correct port. I'm not sure what is wrong, I'd say ide_mm_inb is
the wrong set of iops, it should be ide_inb instead (it's IO
port access, not MMIO), now we have to figure out why ide_mm_inb
got a assigned, I suspect ide_cs actually tried to re-use an IDE
slot that was initialized for ide-pmac (which is mmio).

There are various breakage with IDE in pre4, which is why I don't
quite suggest using my bk tree for now, I'm waiting for Alan &
Marcelo to sync all of Alan recent fixes before I really look into
debugging these.
