acpiphp: Identify more removable slots

According to section 6.3.6 of the ACPI spec, the presence of an _RMV
method that evaluates to 1 is sufficient to indicate that a slot is
removable without needing an eject method. This patch refactors the
ejectable slot detection code a little in order to flag these slots as
ejectable and register them. Acpihp therefore binds to the expresscard
slot on my HP test machine.

this makes acpiphp handle hotplug of (now one, sd reader is somehow
always present) card reader.
