You've got me there. Right now I cannot find the reference to cardbus
I thought I had seen earlier. 
Ok, let's forget this point :-)

Hmm, maybe those 32 bits made me think about cardbus...PCMCIA can only
handle 16 bits.

Obviously it was added in v1.41 of dev/ic/smc91cxx.c. Every occurrence
of the bus_space.*_4 functions is in the 'else' branch of a test for
the MD flag SMC_FLAGS_32BIT_READ which will hopefully never be set on
an Amiga.

Should we add more 'fake 32-bit macros' in amiga/include/bus.h ?


Btw, after excluding the 'sm' device from the kernel config files, the
build of -current finished. Not tested yet.
