MXC MMC driver and SDIO peripherals

[daniel@caiaq.de (Daniel Mack)]

Hi,

we're having trouble getting SDIO connected harware to fly on MX31 based
designs. In particular, a SD8686 chip supported by the libertas_sdio
driver will hang forever when built without CONFIG_MMC_DEBUG=y. With
that option selected, however, the behaviour is a little different, and
I can at least see the following messages on a recent 2.6.32-rc5 based
MX31 tree.

Is there any common pitfall for such setups? I did more or less the same
thing on PXAs (same WLAN chip, same kind of interface, same firmware),
and haven't seen any such effects, so I suspect the MXC specific parts
to be the reason for that. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Daniel
