Thanks!  Actually I thought of sysctl(machdep.checkio) in 3.X to get
current available resources dynamically, but I couldn't get how to get
them from resource manager of newbus system in 4.X and -CURRENT.
The solution is that detect used resources comparing initial state vs. 
current state of resource pool within pccardd and reflect them after
reloading config files.
