pcmcia_request_irq() and pcmcia_enable_device() are intended
to be called from process context (first function allocate memory
with GFP_KERNEL, second take a mutex). We can not take spin lock
and call them.
It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we
still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will
not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.

This is an attempt to fix a long standing open bug:
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1334
The interrupt handler checks for INTA being -1, apparently that means that the
hardware is gone. But the interrupt handler defers actual interrupt processing
to a tasklet. By the time the tasklet is run and checks INTA again, the
hardware might be gone and INTA be -1, which confuses the driver because all
event bits are set.
The patch applies to 2.6.37.

P54_HDR_FLAG_DATA_OUT_SEQNR is meant to tell the
firmware that "the frame's sequence number has
already been set by the application."
Whereas IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ is set for
frames which lack a valid sequence number and
either the driver or firmware has to assign one.
Yup, it's the exact opposite!

This reverts commit 0ce3bcfc84.
Event though with the above commit we obtain the configured DTIM period
from the AP rather than always hardcoding it to '1', this seems to cause
problems under the following scenarios:
* Preventing association with broken AP's
* Adds latency in roaming
So its better to always use the safe value of '1' for dtim period

and crash the system. I can reproduce crash with "kernel BUG at
