The DTS is using:
  compatible = "fsl,imx8mm-usdhc", "fsl,imx7d-usdhc"
which looks incorrect, based on what you wrote in commit description.
Since fsl,imx8mm-usdhc has its own compatibility-group and defines the
properties for entire family (imx8mm + imx8mn + imx8mp), then I would
assume that either fsl,imx8mm-usdhc is not be compatible with imx7d or
everything is compatible with imx7d. IOW, DTS and bindings should be
changed to one of following:
1. Everything compatible with imx7d:
  compatible = "fsl,imx8mm-usdhc", "fsl,imx7d-usdhc";
  compatible = "fsl,imx8mq-usdhc", "fsl,imx8mm-usdhc", "fsl,imx7d-usdhc";

2. A new group:
  compatible = "fsl,imx8mm-usdhc";
  compatible = "fsl,imx8mq-usdhc", "fsl,imx8mm-usdhc";

Which one, I am not sure. My commit 80fd350b95 organized it in (1)
approach, because also that time there was no new group for 8mm (added
in commit 431fae8). I assume NXP engineer knows better, so the better
solution would be (2). In such case, imx8mm has to be moved to the first
enum and all DTS have to be adjusted.


Best regards,
Krzysztof
