RTS522A Realtek card reader not working for me on kernel 5.11

  Realtek card reader driver for kernel >4.4.x (ubuntu 16.04-17.10 have broken driver and all kernels up to 4.15.0-041500rc1)

lspci -v | grep -A 5 unassigned 04:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTS522A PCI Express Card Reader (rev 01) Subsystem: Lenovo RTS522A PCI Express Card Reader Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 255 Memory at fd500000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=4K] Capabilities: Kernel modules: rtsx_pci I also tried installing a fixed driver of the broken one that is available on the Realtek website. However, even though I'm pretty sure the installation of that one worked, lsmod | grep rts rts5229 294912 0 the card reader still uses the rtsx_pci driver instead of this one, even after running rmod rtsx_pci which now tells me the module is not even loaded (why does the lspci output tell me then the card reader is using this module)? So now I'm either looking for a way to get this card reader to use this new driver I installed, a fix of the rtsx_pci driver, or someone to point me in an entirely different direction, because I barely understand how most of this works. Please ask away for any other outputs you need me to provide.
