Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/3] drivers/misc: Add realtek card reader core driver

Hi Borislav:

Realtek card reader supports not only SDMMC card, but also Memory stick. 
This part is the common code, so it is located in drivers/misc. There is 
also SDMMC-relevant code under CONFIG_MMC. And in the future, 
Memstick-relevant code will be added under CONFIG_MEMSTICK.

BR,
wwang
