It's not that easy, unfortunately, because this code does not conform to
all the other mmc host drivers in tree.
I don't understand why things are done the way it is currently
implemented. Why isn't there a mmc_host for each slot, and why is a
regulator reference acquired for each slot, and not once for the whole
device?
Even with the default 'vcc' supply factored out to the mmc core, the
'vmmc_aux' regulator would still need some extra attention, but I would
also do that from the omap_hsmmc driver rather than in the plaform
support code.
Moving the regulator handling to the mmc core would require a major
cleanup to all this code, but I don't have such hardware to test my
modifications. Can anyone help here?
Thanks,
Daniel
