[PATCH] pcmcia: hotplug event for PCMCIA devices

Export information to /sbin/hotplug for PCMCIA devices: card_id, manf_id,
func_id, bus_id (like pcmcia1.0) and crc32-hashes of the prod_id strings.

Why not the prod_id strings themselves?

a) They may contain all sorts of strange and difficult to handle characters,
   like " ".

b) It's impossible to pass multiple strings to userspace.
