Amiga doesn't use anything from the core PCMCIA code, instead providing 
its own basic PCMCIA support code.

I had initially duplicated some of the cis tuple parser code, but 
decided to use what's already there instead.

I can drop these selects, and add instructions to manually select these 
options in the Kconfig help section. Seemed a little error prone to me.

Cheers,
