SubjectRe: 3.8.0-rc4+ - Oops on removing WinTV-HVR-1400 expresscard TV Tuner

Thanks for the tip. I had the pciehp driver installed, but it was a
module and not loaded. I didn't have acpiphp enabled at all. Building
them both in statically, appears to have papered over the cracks of the
oops :-)

Those discussions are way above my level of knowledge. I guess all this
work will be merged into mainline in due course, so I'll watch for them
in 3.9 or later. Unless, of course, there is a tree I could clone and
help test the changes with my laptop and expresscard.

Hotplug isn't working at all on my Fujitsu laptop, so I can only get the
card recognised by rebooting with the card inserted (or by writing 1
to/sys/bus/pci/rescan). There seem to be a few reports on this in the
kernel bugzilla, so I'll look through them and see what's being done.

Thanks again.

Chris
