Same problem when using an external WLAN pcie module. Removing card and replacing back doesn't trigger rescan as it did previously(ubuntu 10.10...) by pcie_force boot option.

Workaround is calling:
echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:03\:00.0/remove > /dev/null
echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/rescan > /dev/null

Where 0000:03.. is pci listing for related wlan card in lspci.
