the code is still in there on purpose -- it is only scheduled for removal
for 2.6.36. See Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt for details. For
2.6.36, I've already applied a patch to the PCMCIA tree, which you may find
at http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/brodo/pcmcia-2.6.git;a=summary
(gitweb).

Best,
Dominik
