It looks like you have an O2 Micro CardBus bridge.  O2 Micro bridges will
spuriously indicate a bus error if parity-error detection is activated.
The error should be apparent in the pcictl(8) dump of the bridge.
I will commit a patch to treat your particular bridge (vendor 0x1217
product 0x7223), soon.
