[PATCH 0/6] SD/MMC driver for MX25/35/51

[Zhu Richard-R65037]

Hi Arnaud:
The mechanism of the GPIO used as write protection pin is implemented ever, you can make a reference to the following suggestions.
The details pls refer to the [PATCH 3/6] mmc: sdhci: introduce private get_ro sent by wolfram.
and 
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2010-September/027269.html

The GPIO Card Detection solution maybe a little complex refer to the GPIO Write Protection,
 since the CD irq should be configured, and the poll Of card detection should be disabled at the same time.
So the sdhc-pltfm.c maybe should be changed too.

Hi Eric:
Can you add this GPIO WP mechanism into your serial patches?
I can't access the external git repos because of the firewall.:(.
The GPIO WP solution had been implemented in my patches before, the details pls refer to the URL listed above.

The codes are simple, maybe the definition of the platform data should be considered.



Best Regards
Richard Zhu
