These are handled by the accessors:

+static void esdhc_writeb(struct sdhci_host *host, u8 val, int reg)
+{
+       int base = reg & ~0x3;
+       int shift = (reg & 0x3) * 8;
+
+       clrsetbits_be32(host->ioaddr + base , 0xff << shift, val << shift);

^^ See, we're always issuing 32bit ops.

The point of this patch is to take care of "triggering" registers,
i.e. those registers that are used trigger "send some data" command.

There is just one (from the eSDHC point of view) such register:
TRANSFER_MODE+COMMAND (which is a single 32 bit register in eSDHC,
but two independant word-sized registers in standard SDHCI).

That register must be accessed with 32bit ops just _once_ per
data transfer, not two 32bit writes (half of a register one time,
and half of a register next time -- this won't work).

But I see the point of confusion... Instead of teaching
"SDHCI core" to work with 32 bits hosts, we'd better handle this
in the eSDHC part, in the accessors.

This is relatively trivial and should not cause much overhead
(at least when using DMA), just a small state machine with
the xfer mode register shadowed in software (plus, notice that
this also handles BLOCK_SIZE, as I promised in another email):
