I'm also interested in both of those topics as 1) I participated in the design of the SDIO stack (closely related to SD), and 2) I did the highmem implementation for ARM.
(You're awesome! :-)
When you say SDIO, you mean just SDIO or SD and SDIO?
SDIO came up, but the main request from TSC-Ms was for _SD_ and I inferred that this meant SD as a mass storage. I suspect it's getting common to get cheaper by getting rid of flash and using just SD in phones and DTVs.
However, I didn't check whether it was "anything impacting fs on SD", which means we might want to look at filesystems, nor how important SDIO was here. In fact, I didn't think of FSes at all, just thought about the throughput of the SD subsystem and specific SD backend drivers.
I'll take an action to go ask the TSC-Ms about this and see what they really care about.
Thanks,
