This is clearly correct

Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

In Dominik's list from
https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y07d7rMvd5++85BJ@owl.dominikbrodowski.net/

he had listed this driver as 'some activity in 2021', but all I can
find are treewide cleanups (mostly from you) after some work by David
in 2008 and Dominik's own PCMCIA rework in 2010. My guess is that
most likely this driver can be removed entirely, but you and David
are the ones who know if there are still users.
