Most of the ata ones should use auto.  The reason that auto doesn't
work should be fixed.  It doesn't work not because it doesn't work on
the CARD, but rather it doesn't work on your MACHINE.  I'm extremely
reluctant to add entries for the latter reason.  I'll look at the auto
stuff in pccardd (since I need to look into similar issues in NEWCARD
and want a good warmup).

auto/default should mean:

	    foreach config:
		if it is not 3.3V -> continue
		try to activate it
		if successful -> break;
	    if no config activated:
		foreach config:
		     try to activate it
		     if successful -> break;
	    if no config activated:
	        fail

Right now it means "pick one kinda at random and if that fails, oh
well"
