Turning off camera also kills card reader on EeePC 900

When running Ubuntu from an SD card issuing
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/eeepc/camera
as root will cause the camera to be turned off AND the SD card to
immediately disappear (which is rather fatal when you are using it). It's
hard to know if this is intended behaviour by the BIOS (given that they
are both USB devices) or a mistake in the platform driver...
