Our implementation has the timing controls for the SD/MMC controller in
another custom IP block(system manager). sys_manager_base_addr was
mapped in mach-socfpga/socfpga.c. I saw the same approach with
drivers/clk(clk_mgr_base_addr), so I thought it would be ok with this
driver. Please advise on another way to do this...

Apologies...it wasn't there in 3.8. I will fix...
