Title:
  1180:e230 Request driver for Ricoh Co Ltd R5U2xx (R5U230 / R5U231 /
  R5U241) [Memory Stick Host Controller]

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  lspci -v

  03:00.0 SD Host controller: Ricoh Co Ltd Device e822
   Subsystem: Sony Corporation Device 9071
   Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 17
   Memory at f3802000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
   Capabilities: <access denied>
   Kernel driver in use: sdhci-pci
   Kernel modules: sdhci-pci

  03:00.1 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Device e230
   Subsystem: Sony Corporation Device 9071
   Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 4
   Memory at f3801000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
   Capabilities: <access denied>

  03:00.4 SD Host controller: Ricoh Co Ltd Device e822
   Subsystem: Sony Corporation Device 9071
   Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 19
   Memory at f3800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
   Capabilities: <access denied>
   Kernel driver in use: sdhci-pci
   Kernel modules: sdhci-pci

  I guess 03:00.0 and 03:00.4 are for SD and 03:00.1 is the magic gate.

  In bug #238208 Maxim, who did the driver for R5C592 told me that's
  very unlikely to write a driver for this device:

  Maxim Levitsky:
  "It is very unlikely that I do the driver for that device, because I suspect that this is very different device.
  Maybe I buy a laptop with this device sometime in future."

  So I open this new bug/wishlist for this driver.
