Can someone explain how the linux kernel handles and allocates memory ranges
for PCMCIA cardbus bridges when the yenta_socket is loaded? I have been
combing through the source code, and I am still unsure of when or where the
allocations are supposed to take place?

Are the memory ranges for the P2P bridge that is before the cardbus bridge
allocated with the cardbus ranges in mind, even if there are no pcmcia cards
in use? When a card is inserted, how are the ranges readjusted to work with
the new requirements (ie the new ranges that are now needing to be mapped)?
In my system, there is a transparent bridge between the host and the cardbus
bridges, so its ranges also need to be adjusted?

Thank you in advance...
I appreciate any input.
