irq conflict with any pcmcia nic

Hello. I have 4.9-RC2 running on my Thinkpad R30. Last month the built-in 
NIC (EtherExpress) stopped working (it's another long story) so I begin to 
use pcmcia NIC. 

The problem is that I tried two different NICs, both use ed and report 
"device timeout". Tracking dmesg I found: (both cards show similiar dmesg)

pcic0 <02micro 6912 PCI-Cardbus Birdge> irq 6 at device 19.0 on pci0
ed0 at port 0x300-0x31f irq 6 slot 0 on pccard0

This shows an irq conflict. But I am not able to assign another irq to 
pcic, compiling a "device pcic0 at isa? irq 10" kernel havn't changed 
anything, irq 6 still goes to pcic0.

Neither can I assign a different irq to the nic. The pccard.conf doesn't 
have irq 6 in it (actually "irq 3 5 10"). I don't know why pccardd assign 
irq 6 when it is not reserved in pccard.conf. 

Help really appreciated. Thank you.
