Dear Tejun

pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia1.1
1.1: GetNextTuple: No more items
pata_pcmcia: probe of 1.1 failed with error -12

The patch "libata: kill hotplug related race condition"
introduced the pata_pcmcia error.

Please fix this problem.

    libata: kill hotplug related race condition
Originally, whole reset processing was done while the port is frozen
    and SError was cleared during @postreset().  This had two race
    conditions.  1: hotplug could occur after reset but before SError is
    cleared and libata won't know about it.  2: hotplug could occur after
    all the reset is complete but before the port is thawed.  As all
    events are cleared on thaw, the hotplug event would be lost.

Interesting!  Thanks for the diagnosis...

	Jeff
