Right, mmc core supports one card per host, but host controller can be supported the multiple slot, right? Of course, it should be handled at host controller, not core. > > Adding DT bindings for something that seems unlikely to be supported > in future, seems like a bad idea. It's better to add it when/if > needed. If some SoC use the multiple slot for dw-mmc controller, we can't prevent to use the multiple slot. So i'm not sure that host controller's subnode didn't need to support. Right. this is bad idea, i also hope that it will not use the multiple slot at dw-mmc in future. To Seungwon, how about this?
