+What: PCMCIA control ioctl (needed for pcmcia-cs [cardmgr, cardctl])
+When: November 2005
+Files: drivers/pcmcia/: pcmcia_ioctl.c
+Why: With the 16-bit PCMCIA subsystem now behaving (almost) like a
+ normal hotpluggable bus, and with it using the default kernel
+ infrastructure (hotplug, driver core, sysfs) keeping the PCMCIA
+ control ioctl needed by cardmgr and cardctl from pcmcia-cs is
+ unnecessary, and makes further cleanups and integration of the
+ PCMCIA subsystem into the Linux kernel device driver model more
+ difficult. The features provided by cardmgr and cardctl are either
+ handled by the kernel itself now or are available in the new
+ pcmciautils package available at
+ http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/pcmcia/
