Hmm, yes, that's true (and if you do a warn reboot, the effect is
sticky and then MMC is missing). I don't know how to make the pci
core re-enumerate devices, but maybe there is a way. I'm not in
a position to do this myself in the near future; so I'm afraid
that if you need this fixed, you'll have to do the digging.

Is it sufficient to call pci_rescan_bus at the end of the disable/enable
routine in ricoh_mmc?
