I'm not quite sure I understand why this is being done.  There doesn't
seem to be any reason to defer initialization of resources owned by a
device until the card is finally instantiated, doing this as early as
possible means that we're in the state we want to be even if we're still
waiting for some other component of the card to appear and register
itself (which may never happen of course) so the hardware is in the
state we want for longer.  I may be missing something here though.
