I'll correct that.

I needed a config option for the compact flash being interfaced on a cardbus
in a legacy 16-bit mode. Have grep'ed the U-Boot sources and couldn't find
anything that would work. I'll need to document that option.

I'll try to contact the previous authors and consult with them a possible
resolution that wouldn't break any existing configurations. My PCI1410/1510
related changes are based on the recommendations I've received from the TI
FAE. The compact flash related changes are based on the data provided by
SanDisk and SimpleTech FAEs.

I certainly appreciate your feedback.
