Problem with at91_mci and AT91RM9200

[lukasz.goralczyk@gmail.com (Łukasz Góralczyk)]

Recently I bough a cheap board with Atmel AT92RM9200 CPU and
preinstalled patched kernel 2.6.21 to play with. Board is NGX Blueboard
ARM9 and it's based (almost a 1:1 copy) on ECB_AT91
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECB_AT91 ) which is supported in kernel.
I was able to do basic things with it (boot from SD, Ethernet).

I compiled newest kernel (2.6.33.4 and 2.6.32 with at91 patches
http://www.at91.com/linux4sam/bin/view/Linux4SAM/LinuxKernel#AT91_Linux_kernel_sources_summar )
which boots but fails to detect SD Card (Sandisk microSD 2 GB through SD
adapter). A the end there's a debugging output (stripped, full:
http://liku.ayz.pl/at91mmc ).

I started to look for a cause of the problem but asking here may save me
some time:
* does anybody still, successfully, uses this CPU and newest at_mci
driver?
* What might be the cause of this error?
* Perhaps CPU is it too obsolete and I should stay with old kernel
(+errata has a lot of problems for mci subsystem)?

What I have already tried:
* I checked hardware connections between card socket and CPU (as well as
other possible hardware causes),
* tried at91 and atmel mci driver, on atmel mci driver nothing happens,
* tried different kernel versions (patched .32 and unpatched .33),
* started to patch new kernel with old patches from ECB but whole mci
subsystem changed.

Regards,
Lukasz.
