Hi Shawn,
The changes you make look very nice, great work there!
I think the split of the series into five patches is not ideal
because you have more interdependencies than necessary, and it's
not clear that the series can be safely bisected, especially
with the way you do all the Kconfig/Makefile updates at the
end.
A nicer way to partition the series would be
1. Add sdhci_pltfm_init helper
2-5. Convert each of the users, including the respective
Kconfig/Makefile changes
6. remove obsolete code from sdhci-pltfm.c
As I said, that's just a detail and the end result is the same.
If you don't get any other feedback and Chris is happy with the
changes, I wouldn't expect you to reshuffle all the patches just
for this.
