Why is 0 a special value that means 4? Why not just use 4?
Here you just assign 0 to pdata->wires.
I see the current version of the driver handles this specially in
davinci_mmcsd_probe, but I don't see why this should leak into the binding.
What I was originally trying to get at is that the binding says 8, 4, and 1 are
acceptable values, but you check the cases 8, 4, or 0. So you're accepting
something not documented, and producing a warning in a valid case (1).

If they specify something invalid, falling back to a sane value with a warning
sounds good.

There have been and inevitably will be plenty of errors in dts files. I think
it'd be good to provide a warning and either use a value that's guaranteed to
work, or bail out if that can't be done.
If it's always valid to use 1 data line even if the hardware has more, I think
falling back to 1 makes more sense, as it'd be guaranteed to work.

With the first case changed to "case 1:", this block makes sense to me.
Thanks,
