No.  None of the threads you listed is responsible.  In practice the 
detection is done by HAL, a userspace daemon.

Which daemon process are you talking about?  In general there is no
connection between any daemons and sd_probe.

Your question isn't clear.  Are you asking why the kernel does not 
detect the SCSI device?  But it _does_ detect the SCSI device, as you 
can see from your own log:

The last line shows that the kernel has detected a SCSI disk.

Are you asking why the SD card wasn't detected when you put in in the 
reader?  Probably because you weren't running HAL.
