That's really interesting.

I was under impression that we use internal DMA controller (AKA IDMAC)
on that platform (HSDK).

This is what we typically see in bootlog (this extract is taken from
4.15-r9):
--------------------------------->8--------------------------------
dw_mmc f000a000.mmc: 'num-slots' was deprecated.
dw_mmc f000a000.mmc: IDMAC supports 32-bit address mode.
dw_mmc f000a000.mmc: Using internal DMA controller.
dw_mmc f000a000.mmc: Version ID is 290a
dw_mmc f000a000.mmc: DW MMC controller at irq 12,32 bit host data width,16 deep fifo
--------------------------------->8--------------------------------

I'm not really sure how PIO mode (which stands for non-DMA mode) got used
given we have IDMAC in the hardware.

@ Evgeniy, could you please check why IDMAC is not used?
