Driver? Why this has to pass compatible check?

I think I asked to provide proper rationale based on hardware... if not,
then let me ask here: Please provide proper rationale explaining how
this hardware is compatible, especially considering these are entirely
different buses (SDIO and PCI!).

It feels you patch up bindings and DTS, because of buggy driver. Sorry
no, fix the driver.

Best regards,
