David's suggestion happens to work, but I think it leaves the driver broken in a more subtle manner (ISTM that a pcmcia_register_driver error could change the set of supported devices for no rational reason -- and even if that's not the case, IMO there are other reasons why the code doesn't quite make sense).

The 2.6.22-13.40 changes to orinoco_cs.c are rather broken, but IMO it would be best to try to fix them rather than just revert them altogether. I'm not 100% sure what the best approach would be. My current plan is to create 2 or 3 patches (later today) and let the Ubuntu kernel maintainers decide which approach would be best.
