Yes. It was disabled in the config.

Now it works.

It was missing a mmc3.probe=1 in the init scripts. Now both are 
recognized correctly.

Now I am trying to extend the I2C Lines outside the board for a 
oscilloscope and/or a Saleae Logic Bus Analyzer. As soon as I find the 
solution or not I will keep you informed.

Anyway in the config there is both GPIO BASED I2C DRIVER and Platform 
iMX Driver. I tried to disable the GPIO Based but it does not work.

Now I am thinking about some pulled-low/high line by some chips in the 
board. I will see.

Thanks!
