pre-patch 2.1.89-3 changed how poll_wait() was used. The patch below
looks correct but there may be other problems as well. It looks like
cardctl is getting hung up (probably in a system call, since SIGHUPing
cardctl will get it to finish loading).
Not a problem in the binaries themselves since the same binary will
work with 2.1.88's loadable modules (booting up under 2.1.88).
