Patch 5130/3 contains the correct information, however the final patch 5130/4 has the at91_mci section removed. Was there a reason for this?

I advice you to go with Linux4sam.org experimental patches for 2.6.27.
for 2.6.30 you have a preview here:
ftp://ftp.linux4sam.org/devel/linux/
(pick the 3 ones that are at91_mci related)

> Also it would be useful to know what the preferred MCI (MMC) driver for the AT91SAM9G20 is; the at91_mci or atmel_mci. The revision A and B AT91SAM9G20-EK dev board (board-sam9g20ek.c) uses the at91_mci driver, but the revision C AT91SAM9G20-EK dev board (board-sam9g20ek-2slot-mmc.c) uses atmel_mci driver.

Dual slot 9g20 has a patch to enable at91_mci use:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2009-October/002577.html

- atmel_mci allow the use of 2 slots but does not handle PDC (DMA data
transfers)
- at91_mci is using PDC (recommended with experimental patches mentioned
above)
