My Thinkpad X220 seems to have a different revision of the Ricoh MMC SD card reader.

With the current latest kernel included in Natty, the SD/MMC card reader does not work at all; the modules load, but the card insertion is not seen at all with the cards I've tried (a 2 GB SanDisk Class 2 SD, and a 16 GB Transcend Class 6 SDHC). However, I've managed to use the following debug_quirks parameter (placed in /etc/modprobe.d/sdhci.conf), which seems to make the reader function, seeing the inserted card, allowing it to be mounted, and for files to be accessed without crashing the system:

options sdhci debug_quirks=0x4670

However, I do still get occasional spew like this in dmesg:

[ 694.789723] mmc0: Got data interrupt 0x00000002 even though no data operation was in progress.

It would seem different revs of the X220 have different SD/MMC card reader flavors. dmidecode identifies this machine as:
