Mikulas,

many thanks for tracking down this issue. Does the following patch

Subject: [PATCH] pcmcia: do not initialize the present flag too late.

The "present" flag was initialized too late -- possibly, a card
was already registered at this time, so re-setting the flag to 0
caused pcmcia_dev_present() to fail.
