CID: 201009-6529 Dell Latitude 2120

This card reader, Realtek [10ec:5208] works fine on 12.04.2 (kernel
3.5.0-23)

However, it does not work on 3.8 kernels.

Steps:
1. Install 12.04.3 (kernel 3.8.0-29), boot to desktop.
2. Verify by inserting a SDHC card (which can be detected in 12.04.2)

Expected result:
The card reader works, SDHC card correctly detected.

Actual result:
Nothing happened.

Verified with 12.04.3 + kernel 3.8.0-30 and 13.04 (with LiveUSB).

Bug description:
  A laptop has an SD card reader with PCI interface. This needs the
  driver (rts_pstor.tar.bz2) from Realtek. Its source is free for
  download from Realtek website, but the driver is not included in
  Ubuntu nor upstream kernel.

  Current driver version is v1.08 released on 2010/12/15. It is verified
  to work on Maverick, but failed to get compiled on 2.6.37 Natty
  kernel.

  * Update on 2010/Jan/21

  The driver author from Realtek fixed the compiling error against
  2.6.37 kernel. Also he sent the driver in the staging tree mailing
  list for review.
