nope, no updates yet. The flood also only starts when udev wants to
create its device nodes, meaning the initial detection seems not to
produce this problem

But when I disable the whole boot partition stuff, it works as before
without irq storms.

As there don't seem to exist reports from other emmc users about this
I guess the problem lays somewhere between the boot-partitions-patch
and the sdhci-s3c driver (for s3c2416 at least).

As my knowledge about the whole mmc-subsystem is quite spare I also
don't really know where to start looking for the culprit yet.
