@ -111,18 +111,7 @@ The PC-CARD slot resources are freed.
Once a card/driver instance is configured, the resources
bound to that instance are remembered, and if the card is removed
and reinserted, the same driver is allocated.
The primary reason
is that once a driver is associated with a card, the
driver's
.Fn probe
routine has been called, and this usually causes driver specific
data areas to be initialized with the I/O ports or memory resources
allocated to the card.
Most drivers are not designed to be
disassociated from the hardware and then reassociated with different
parameters.
This will change significantly when loadable kernel
modules are supported.
The reasons are mostly historical.
