What card(s), specifically, are you having trouble with? I know of no
production multifunction devices that are implemented with an internal
PCI bus bridge. I know of some experimental hardware like this, but
it has never been supported by any version of the linux PCMCIA driver
stack.
Having the secondary bus == subordinate bus should be OK for all
currently supported hardware. If you're having problems, I think
something else must be at fault.
