[Impact]
It was discovered that the Xircom PCMCIA network device driver in the Linux
kernel did not properly handle device removal events. A physically proximate
or privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system
crash).

[Backport]
Clean cherry pick.

[Test]
Compile and smoke tested.

[Potential Regression]
Expecting low regression potential since this commit only adds an additional
layer of protect.
