I would very much like to see such a design. Currently the devices
we see all follow Allwinner's reference design, with only minor
modifications. As such, mmc1 is used exclusively for connecting
SDIO-based WiFi modules.

If such a radical(?) design is done, the vendor can always add
a "mmc1-1bit-pins" setting and override the default.
