Actually I think this is present also on the ux500 variants. See:
commit 2253ed4b36dc876d1598c4dab5587e537ec68c34
"mmc: mmci: Support any block sizes for ux500v2 and qcom variant"
Spot the variant data "dma_power_of_2".
So whatever property you add
to the variant data (not in the device tree please) should
be added to the ux500 variants as well, it will *VERY* likely
have a problem with LLI elements not being a power of 2
as it is the ancestor of later STMicro variants.
It might actually be the reason for some annoying WiFi error
messages I have seen :/
Yours,
Linus Walleij
