No, I do not have plans to submit a V3 of this patch series.

I submitted this patch as RPI has a similar controller to the SoCs I am 
familiar with as well as needing similar work arounds   You can take 
over the patchset.  Or, try and get the sdhci-iproc.c driver going on 
RPI.  The sdhci-iproc is the production driver we use on a variety of 
SoCs and support and test this driver.

OK, but is this really necessary?  If veryify workaround ever prints 
anything then the driver workarounds aren't doing what it is supposed to 
anyway?
