YS1, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/Product/latitude-e6420
an update is available for your BIOS (A19). If you update to this, does
it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  1217:8221 [Dell Latitude E6420] O2 Micro Cardreader does not work on
  Ubuntu 12.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hello,

  the title sums it up quite well : I cannot use the SD card slot of my
  Dell E6420, nothing happens when a card is inserted.

  I tried loading the sdhci kernel module at startup and booting with
  the card inserted, to no avail.

  I am suprised of this because this hardware is present in the
  certified hardware list :
  <http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/component/pci/1217:8221/>
