I just saw that, yet it was the perfect place for the HW initialisation I'm
talking about.
Any way we can restore it?

Well, in 4.7 sdhci_arasan_probe() did not call of_match_device(), so I had
put a call to it just before sdhci_pltfm_init(), something like:

+static const struct of_device_id sdhci_arasan_of_match[] = {
+       {
+               .compatible = "arasan,sdhci-8.9a",
+               .data = &sdhci_arasan_ops,
+       },
+       {
+               .compatible = "arasan,sdhci-5.1",
+               .data = &sdhci_arasan_ops,
+       },
+       {
+               .compatible = "arasan,sdhci-4.9a",
+               .data = &sdhci_arasan_ops,
+       },
+       {
+               .compatible = "sigma,smp8734-sdio",
+               .data = &sdhci_arasan_tango4_ops,
+       },
+       { }
+};
+MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, sdhci_arasan_of_match);

...

+       const struct of_device_id *match;
+
+       match = of_match_device(sdhci_arasan_of_match, &pdev->dev);
+       if (match)
+               sdhci_arasan_pdata.ops = match->data;

where 'sdhci_arasan_tango4_ops' contained a pointer to a .platform_init
callback.

However, as I stated earlier, an upstream commit:

commit 3ea4666e8d429223fbb39c1dccee7599ef7657d5
Author: Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org>

    mmc: sdhci-of-arasan: Properly set corecfg_baseclkfreq on rk3399

changed struct 'sdhci_arasan_of_match' to convey different data, which
means that instead of having a generic way of accessing such data (such
as 'of_match_device()' and ".data" field), one must also check for
specific "compatible" strings to make sense of the ".data" field, such as
"rockchip,rk3399-sdhci-5.1"

With the current code:
- there's no 'of_match_device()' before 'sdhci_pltfm_init()'
- the sdhci_pltfm_init() call is made with a static 'sdhci_arasan_pdata'
struct (so it cannot be made dependent on the "compatible" string).
- since 'sdhci_arasan_pdata' is the same for all compatible devices, even
for those that require special handling, more "compatible" matching code is
required
- leading to spread "compatible" matching code; IMHO it would be cleaner if
the 'sdhci_arasan_probe()' code was generic, with just a generic "compatible"
matching, which then proceeded with specific initialisation and generic
initialisation.

In a nutshell, IMHO it would be better if adding support for more SoCs only
involved changing just 'sdhci_arasan_of_match' without the need to change
'sdhci_arasan_probe()'.
That would clearly separate the generic and "SoC"-specific code, thus allowing
better maintenance.

Does that makes sense to you guys?

Best regards,

Sebastian
