It is a USB device connected directly to the motherboard.  I just
realized I had a typo in my first message, it is lsusb, not lspci,
that sees it as:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 07cc:0301 Carry Computer Eng., Co., Ltd 6-in-1
Card Reader
I don't have a hub attached.

And I totally weirded out by not seeing any kernel messages when I
insert a card.  I'm not sure where to go next.
