[PATCH RFC] mmc: add slot argument to mmc_of_parse

Some hosts manage several slots. In these case information such as the bus
width, chip detect and others are into the slot node. So we have to parse
child nodes. If not NULL, slot node will be used instead of the device
node.

Hi,

Since this patch is only a RFC, I have not yet updated drivers using this
function.

I would like to use mmc_of_parse to reduce code duplication. My issue is that
atmel mci is a bit different from others mci host since it can provide
several slots, so it allocates several mmc hosts. By the way, it is not the
only one.

When calling mmc_alloc_host, host->parent is set to &pdev->dev. mmc_of_parse
uses host->parent->of_node but in my case settings are in the slot nodes so in
the child nodes. That's why I would like to have a way to tell which node I
want to use.


Regards

Ludovic
