basically, dmesg.

nothing is changed if pinfunc is 0 or 1 , i.e. CD is not working both 
configuration.

it's always "hi".

$ sudo grep 'gpio-4 ' /sys/kernel/debug/gpio
  gpio-4   (                    |cd                  ) in  hi IRQ ACTIVE LOW

----

I forgot to explain about exception. only if microSD card is inserted 
before kernel boot, card is recognized and accessible.
in this case, gpio-4 is "lo" till card is removed.
when card is removed, gpio-4 goes "hi", dmesg shows "mmc1: card 1234 
removed".
after that, even if card is inserted again, gpio-4 never goes "lo", card 
is never detected.

btw, I usually put bootloader on microSD card. (kernel and userland are 
on USB-SSD)
this time, I tried "boot from SPI flash", but nothing is changed.


I understand this is very strange, I'm okay if this patch is rejected.
I want to know more information from other users to find out real solution.

Best regards,
