Description of problem:
I noticed that at shutdown time on my laptop I was systematically getting a
kernel ops. After investigation I realized that the pcmcia config file still
references for APA1480x cards the aic7xxx_mod driver which does no longer
exists.  The card works fine, but at shutdown time the pcmcia cardmgr does not
modprobe -r aic7xxx (which is the driver actually used) and therefore the system
panics when after pcmcia shutdown tries to shutdown the scsi driver. I changed
aic7xxx_mod -> aic7xxx in the config file, but I am afraid it is too naive
(anyway it does no longer oops on shutdown), also the apa1480x setttings refer
to cb_enabler which is no longer distributed as well.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot a laptop with a pcmcia Adaptec SCSI bus card
2. DO whichever you like with the SCSI system
3. Shutdown the machine
	

Actual Results:  Kernel oops


Expected Results:  No problem
