I'm an software engineer of Realtek corporation, responsible for writing driver for Realtek Card Reader chips. Our device supports SD/MMC/MS/MSpro/xD series of cards, etc., which is implemented as an SCSI device in our driver, and now our driver rts_pstor is under staging folder of linux kernel, so I want to know whether it is possible to move it out of staging folder, and reside in SCSI subsystem? I also know that both "mmc" and "memstick" subsystem exist in kernel now, but our device is a composition of these types of cards, so it seems not suitable for keeping our driver there. All replies are appreciated. Thanks & BRs Edwin.Rong
