Adding PCMCIA support to an existing driver isn't very complicated,
however, I think the existing Linux PCMCIA interface is about 5
times more complicated than it needs to be.  So it's a bit difficult
to understand until you realize "Oh, I need to do _that_, too."

You can look at etc/pcmcia/comedi.conf in Comedilib.  It's easier
than wading through devices.txt, which still does not have bus
information.
