This config option is considered so immature that it's not ready for kernel config, even as an EXPERIMENTAL. Use it at your own risk.

Of course. But the choice is simple. Without it, one has a non-functional device. With it, one has a device that works beautifully.

I would seriously argue with the "works beautifully" part of that. The DPCM code relies on the SDDR09 code, which is horrendously buggy. I can crash it at will with relatively simple operations.

Let me be more precise then.
The commands

	blockdev --rereadpt /dev/sdb
	mount /dev/sdb1 /f -t msdos
	mv /f/dcim/100mlt01/* .
	umount /f

copy the digital camera images written by a Minolta from a Compact Flash card to the current directory and empty the card. This is the part that works beautifully (since it works).

(One of these days I must look more at the rereadpt part of this. After removing the card, I still have the partition /dev/sdb1, which is an error.)
