Right, I'll remove this comment.

In our case the SDIO device is always physically connected to SDIO bus 
but the power of the device can be controller. So in SW point of view 
the device can be removed by switching the power off.

In our case we don't want to read card detect bit and we have to 
continue MMC probing because card detect pin is routed nowhere.

Could it be better to return zero instead of error? ENOSYS is used to 
indicate "unreachable card detect" in other drivers (e.g. atmel-mci, 
omap_hsmmc) and I followed them.

MMC_CAP_NEEDS_POLL is always set in mxs-mmc.
