Experience have shown that the using the  autocalibration could severely
degrade the performances of the MMC bus.

Allwinner is using in its BSP a delay set to 0 for all the modes but HS400.
Remove the calibration code for now, and add comments to document our
findings.

Which older SoCs have this calibration register and a DS signal?
Is that supposed to mean "other" SoCs?
