I think this doesn't work. What is your actual suggestion?

	if (card->csd.dsr_imp && host->dsr)

? The intended semantic is that if the device tree has:

	dsr = <$somevalue>;

the DSR is written, and if there is no such property, DSR is unhandled.
If you just check for host->dsr being != 0, how to differenciate between

	dsr = <0>;

in the device tree and dsr not being specified?

Best regards
Uwe
