staging: Update TODO for rts5139 and rts_pstor
These are each >20k LOC drivers that embed an entire SD stack, and present SD cards as if they were SCSI devices; both drivers should be rewritten to be small hooks that connect the PCI (for rts_pstor) or USB (for rts5139) hardware into Linux's MMC/xD/memorystick stacks.

+- stop having thousands of lines of code duplicated with staging/rts5139
+- This driver contains an entire SD/MMC stack -- it should use the stack in
+ drivers/mmc instead, as a host driver e.g. drivers/mmc/host/realtek-pci.c;
+ see drivers/mmc/host/via-sdmmc.c as an example.
+- This driver presents cards as SCSI devices, but they should be MMC devices.
