Yes, looks better.

I think you can further simplify this, given that in the DT case we always
allocate a zeroed mmci_platform_data for host->plat, so !plat cannot happen
when we get here.

And based on that, you can unconditionally pass plat->dma_filter and
plat->dma_rx_param here. In case of DT, they will be NULL, and they
will not be used either.
