[RFC] pcmcia: bus pcmcia_bus_type, driver_socket as interface

Hi!

Patch #1: pcmcia-2.5.62-bus_drivers-3
These patches add a new bus_type pcmcia_bus_type, and registers all pcmcia
drivers with this bus. This is still done using the "old" registration
calls; but over the long term this will move -- so that the pcmcia core
knows about module->owner, for example.

Patch #2: pcmcia-2.5.62-ds-1
This starts a change of "Driver Servies" to become a "interface" to
pcmcia_socket-class devices. The interface_add_data call is commented out
due to a driver model bug (deadlock) Patrick Mochel already knows about. Due
to this, removing a driver services module or a socket won't currently work.
