[PATCH] pcmcia: don't bale on invalid card headers

[Alan Cox]

There is no requirement a PCMCIA card has valid CIS data or even a CIS.
The MTD layer correctly handles this but the core PCMCIA code erroneously
refuses to accept the card and prevents the MTD driver from working in
this case.

Tested with an Apple Newton 1MB SRAM card.
