Yes I have and it does not work. Current mxs-mmc driver uses polling 
method and it reads the CARD_DETECT bit of STATUS register. In our case 
card detect is signal is unrouted so SDIO device is never detect.

Another problem with NONREMOVABLE feature is in case where power cycle 
or reset is done for SDIO device. A device drive doesn't detect HW 
reset. After reset the device driver is still in running state and it 
does not reinitialize the device. So after reset device stops to work.
