I think you're compiling the driver against the kernel's pcmcia
headers, but using the David Hinds pcmcia-cs modules.  You'll need to
recompile the driver against the pcmcia-cs headers.  To do that edit
the Makefile to point to the pcmcia-cs include directories before the
kernel's.

Or else just use the version included in the pcmcia-cs package.
