I think Adrian was concerned that other SDHCI drivers might unknowingly 
be in the same case. That being said I am also in favor of fixing the 
root issue instead of adding temporary glue that we might eventually 
forget to remove...

How long it will take for everyone to fix their drivers is another 
question, since the device doesn't clearly break, but falls back to a 
degraded mode with a warning.
