pcmcia: fix setting of kthread task states
We need to set TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE before calling kthread_should_stop(). Otherwise, kthread_stop() might see that the pccardd thread is still in TASK_RUNNING state and fail to wake it up. Additionally, we only need to set the state back to TASK_RUNNING if kthread_should_stop() breaks the loop.
