yes, the driver type flags currently have no benefit.

AFAIK the sdhci doesn't support external DMA (required for bcm2835).
So DMA support would result in a new driver, which i'm currently not interested.

But i've prepared a fixup patch series for the sdhost driver i want to send to Gerd.

Sorry, i can't follow. Do you mean DDR mode?
