Thanks for the patches. I could get the stuff working. I applied 

2.6.30-at91-exp-0031-atmel-mci-change-use-of-dma-slave-interface.patch
2.6.30-at91-exp-0032-mmc-atmel-mci-New-MCI2-module-support-in-atmel-mci.patch
2.6.30-at91-exp-0033-at91-atmel-mci-inclusion-of-sd-mmc-driver-in-at91sa.patch

to Linus tree (2.6.32-rc2)

As to 2.6.30-at91-exp-0033-at91-atmel-mci-inclusion-of-sd-mmc-driver-in-at91sa.patch I've only changed
DW_DMA_SLAVE_WIDTH_32BIT to AT_DMA_SLAVE_WIDTH_32BIT

I couldn't apply 2.6.30-at91-exp-0032-mmc-atmel-mci-New-MCI2-module-support-in-atmel-mci.patch with quilt at once, so I had to make it manually. Here is applicable version:
