Devicetree: Initialization order of mmc block devices?

[Dirk Behme]

Similar to [1] we have a device which has two mmc block devices 
connected: One external removable and a second internal hard wired one. 
Depending on the availability of the external removable mmc card at boot 
time, the internal hard wired device becomes mmcblk1 (external mmc card 
available == mmcblk0) or mmcblk0 if the external one is not there. This 
order is given by the hardware.

With older, non-DT kernels, we used the hack from [2] to control the 
initialization order and force the internal hard wired device to mmcblk0.

Now, we are switching to a newer, DT based kernel. With a DT based 
kernel this hack doesn't seem to work an more.

Any idea how we could influence the initialization order of the mmc 
block devices using a DT based kernel? Ensuring that the internal, hard 
wired mmc card is always mapped to mmcblk0?

Many thanks and best regards

Dirk
