Yes, as I had written in the first email I built these patches against
our Kernel 2.6.32.
I wanted to align them to the mmc-next after clarifying some doubts I had.
For example the wakeup option used for selecting at runtime the wakeup mode.

Hmm, I suspected this :-(. Unfortunately I need to not pass the parent
for the problem described in the patch.
How to proceed? Do I have to re-introduce the sdhci-stm driver?

At any rate, no problem to re-base the patches to the mmc-next.I'll do
it soon!
