The main reason may be CD/WP function needs controller clock on.
But after enable runtime pm, the clock will be disabled.

ARM: dts: imx51-babbage: Fix esdhc setup

Since commit 89d7e5c13122 (mmc: sdhci-esdhc-imx: add runtime pm
support), controller based card detection / write protection is not
supported anymore by esdhc driver.  Let's use GPIO for CD/WP on esdhc1
instead.

While at it, fix cd gpio polarity for esdhc2. This is wrong and
currently only works because the imx esdhc driver ignores the polarity.

WP is bit different since sdhci_get_ro will call runtime_pm_get to enable
clocks. So i guess WP may still work.
I did not test, but i did see there's still a lot users of fsl,wp_controller
in device tree which is supposed to work.

There's no fsl,cd-controller users anymore.
