This looks like a common SDHCI driver issue that it assumes the default
bus-width as 4 bit if no SDHCI_QUIRK_FORCE_1_BIT_DATA specified.
        if (!(host->quirks & SDHCI_QUIRK_FORCE_1_BIT_DATA))
                mmc->caps |= MMC_CAP_4_BIT_DATA;

And I'm not sure Andrian or Ulf would like to see people keep using this quirk.
IMHO we probably could totally remove it since bus-width already tells
what the driver needs.

Andrian & Ulf,
Comments?
