Or at least, that's what lspci says. However, it also shows that the
firewire controller is a "Ricoh Co Ltd R5C551", and according to this page
<http://ext.ricoh.co.jp/LSI/spec/assp/5c551/5c551-j.html> that's a "Super
One Chip" which contains both a firewire controller and PCMCIA/Cardbus. It's
possible that this is the actual chip and it's just emulating the 4c475.
