Hi Rob,
We did look at SDHCI and decided to go with this design due to its
simplicity and lack of library functions. Yaniv described the proper flow
of probing and, as we understand things, it is guaranteed to work as
designed.
Furthermore, the design of having a subcore in the dts is used in the
Linux kernel. Please have a look at drivers/usb/dwc3 where - as an example
- both dwc3-msm and dwc3-exynox invoke the probing function in core.c
(i.e. the shared underlying Synopsys USB dwc3 core) by calling
of_platform_populate().
Do you see a benefit in the SDHCi implementation?
