Please put function prototypes in header files.

Additional parens not required.

While making this a visible function, it may also make sense to
change it from taking a struct device pointer to taking the
struct pcmcia_low_level pointer which is really what its after.

Lastly the ordering of pxa2xx_configure_sockets() is wrong - doing
setup after adding sockets is racy.  That's probably something which
should fixed in the pxa2xx code too.
