[Bug 1239938] Re: No cardreader support for O2 Micro, Inc. Device [1217:8520]

 

Had a "How to submit patches" tech talk with O2Micro engineers, they
submitted their first version but rejected, maintainer suggest they
wrote a new module instead of adding ~200 lines into general module.

By now, their patch v2 is waiting for review.

Bug description:
  Open this bug to trace device driver for O2 Micro, Inc. Device
  [1217:8520].

  We have seen this cardreader on some laptops, but most BIOS missed its
  special init, it's better to do that init in kernel.

  The support doesn't show up in mainline or mmc-next yet.
