System Appears to Hang When the PC ATA (`pcata`) Module Is `modunloaded` (BugID 4096137)

If there is a PCMCIA I/O card in a slot that has been accessed and the card driver is unloaded (as occurs during modunload -i 0 at the end of multi-user boot) the system appears to hang.

Workaround: Removing the card may bring the system back.
