I have MSI U270. Card reader uses Realtek chip some like RTS5139.
Kernel driver for the chip causes USB kernel's stack to collapse.
I'm not able to fix it. I think this issue should be fixed by Realtek.
The problem have been really serious, since the driver is included in stable branch
of kernel 3.2.x (I haven't tested with 3.0) - I can't boot live CD of
distro.s based on ubuntu 12.04.
If you want to use kernel 3, you may simple remove
the file "rts5139.ko" from the kernel. After then USB works but card reader.
I don't know how to send this msg to kernel team :(
