Which already has nothing to do with the mmc driver. And the rest of your mail makes this even more clear. You want bfq for interactive systems with little resources and really shitty storage device, which just happen to use mmc in your use case. My use case for sd cards OTOH is extremely resource constrained systems where I absolutely do not want a bloated I/O scheduler. In fact I'd love to be able to even compile the infrastructure for them away. In other words: you want distro policy to use bfq for your use case, but that has no business being in the Kconfig.
