2.3.99pre4-5:

1.

In earlier kernels, the ioctl(DS_GET_DEVICE_INFO) for pcmcia NICs was
returning "eth0" as the name in bind_info_t.name[]. In current kernels
it is returning the driver name, as supplied by the driver in its
pci_driver.name field - "3c575_cb", for example. This breaks David's
pcmcia tools.

What's the fix?

2.
==

When I run 'cardctl suspend', the card is successfully shut down, but I
simply can't find a way of bringing it back to life. Also, the driver's
pci_driver.suspend and pci_driver.resume methods are never called.

Is this a known problem?

For reference purposes: in this regard the drivers behaviour is
identical to drivers/net/pcmcia/3c575_cb.c
