The downstream Raspberry Pi kernel appears to be using this controller by default at this point. I've tried to do some testing on it (mounting filesystem, reading/writing files, speed tests), but I'm not sure what a good testing regimen for storage drivers would be. Eric Anholt (4): dt-bindings: Add binding for brcm,bcm2835-sdhost. mmc: bcm2835-sdhost: Add new driver for the internal SD controller. ARM: bcm2835: Include SDHOST in the device tree. ARM: bcm2835: Enable SDHOST by default.
This patchset misses defconfig changes to enable the new sdhost driver. So we end up with a default kernel without the sdhost driver compiled in but with sdhost enabled in the default device-tree (patch4) resulting in a system that does not boot. Thanks, Martin
