Hi Otavio, hi Marek,

let me say some words about this discussion. I agree that if there is no
support for DMA for MX23, we could add support with PIO mode. However,
there should be a very good reason, because as far as I understand,
added support for DMA is valid for mxs platform. The solution introduced
with this patchset lets also the door open for people that can use MX28
in PIO mode. I think (I have already seen in ML Marek's patchset for it)
the way to fix DMA for mx23 and then add support for MMC is the rught
way to do.

Best regards,
Stefano Babic
