I have a IBM Thinkpad G41 with a pentium4M with Hyperthreading. I can't get the PCMCIA working at all. I've tried turning off hyperthreading, I've tried with and without preempt, I've even added pci=noacpi. I've added Len's ACPI patches, but nothing works.
I see the same problem with an IBM Thinkpad G40, and only when there is 1Gb of memory or more in the machine.
The problem was reported the first time (to my knowledge), here: http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0306.3/0956.html by a Thinkpad T40 user.
So the problem seems to affect at least three different Thinkpad models.
The workaround I've seen so far have either been to disable pci_fixup_transparent_bridge (as mentioned in this thread) or to raise the value of pci_mem_start.
