Looking at the Wireless Tools page, I read:

For many laptops, the PCMCIA bus (CONFIG_PCCARD) needs to be built.
In some cases, this bus support will also need to be built for
embedded wireless cards. The appropriate bridge support also needs
to be built. For many modern laptops, the CardBus host bridge
(CONFIG_YENTA) will be needed.

 I'm sure that was accurate when it was written, but for some reason
I lack the motivation to try to dig back to see when that was.

 To me, in 2014, a _modern_ laptop is extremely unlikely to be using
PCMCIA or YENTA.  Or am I, again, totally mistaken ?  I can see that
PCCARD _might_ be needed for machines without PCMCIA, but I do not
have any idea how that would be better worded (and, for the moment,
zero experience of such things).
