pcmcia: dev_node removal (write-only drivers)
dev_node_t was only used to transport some minor/major numbers from the PCMCIA device drivers to deprecated userspace helpers. However, only a few drivers made use of it, and the userspace helpers are deprecated anyways. Therefore, get rid of dev_node_t . As a first step, remove any usage of dev_node_t from drivers which only wrote to this typedef/struct, but did not make use of it.

- A driver needs to provide a dev_node_t structure for each device

- example, ethernet cards, modems). In other cases, there may be
- many actual or logical devices (SCSI adapters, memory cards with
- multiple partitions). The dev_node_t structures need to be kept
- in a linked list starting at the 'dev' field of a struct pcmcia_device
- structure. We allocate them in the card's private data structure,
- because they generally shouldn't be allocated dynamically.
-
- In this case, we also provide a flag to indicate if a device is
- "stopped" due to a power management event, or card ejection. The
- device IO routines can use a flag like this to throttle IO to a
- card that is not ready to accept it.
