Why not just make the same hack as in i3000_edac.c, i82860_edac.c, 
i82875p_edac.c and i82975x_edac.c?
I mean code around all occuriencies of 'mci_pdev'.
This hack still needs some polishing (at least for i82875p and i82975x), but it 
works for me (I have AGP stuff compiled into kernel).
I attach 10-minutes copy-paste patch (completely untested, sorry, idea only).
I have 443gx just upgraded to 2.6 so I'll try to test it in next few days.

Best,
Vladislav
