heads up: pcic(16bit) and pcelx

Subject: heads up: pcic(16bit) and pcelx

My recent putback of:

4305127 pcmcia controller works under Yenta mode
6207608 pcmcia CIS parsing broken on AMD64
6371007 core dump happens when fdformat the sram pccard on amd64 with snv_24+

makes the pcic nexus driver support Yenta mode on both the sparc and x86
platform.
Those 16bit pccard leaf drivers such as pcelx, pcram have also been
updated so that
they can work on x86 and sparc. As a result, those **pcelx** users on
x86 platform need not
to get binary from 'frkit' or China wifi-team website any more.

As a result, if you just use **16bit** pccard such as pcelx, pcser, pcwl
etc, then you need
not to install cardbus nexus driver.

After the cardbus nexus driver is putback in the future, this Yenta mode
pcic driver will
be as a misc module and is responsible for the 16bit pccard card-service
and socket-sevice.

Thanks,
Brian
