I got these working with the Sim.One board without modification.
The data rate when dd'ing from the block device is slightly slower
than the Cirrus Logic patches (222kB/s instead of 235kB/s), and I got
the same kind of write errors at the same frequency as we did with the
Cirrus code, but this seems to be some problem with our board. Unlike
the CIrrus code, it successfully retries failed multi-block read
requests using single-block reads.

In case it's useful to you, I attach the first hack of the
modifications I made to the board description file
I'm not sure it's right, and I haven't coded in the use of the
MMC-card-present GPIO interrupt line yet, but it "seems to work" ^TM
