Hi Eli,

The write protection signal is absent on a board based upon Xilinx' Zynq

This patch adds a quirk and an optional OF property, sdhci,wp-broken to
work around this issue.
Just to confirm your motivation for the patch: wp-inverted would solve
this problem for you, but you'd rather add a new property that more
accurately describes the hardware?
Yes, that's the point.
(We'd probably use broken-wp, for symmetry with the existing broken-cd.)
I picked "sdhci,wp-broken" because of the similarity with
"sdhci,wp-inverted", as opposed to "broken-cd" (with no "sdhci," prefix).
Would you like me to resubmit the patch with "broken-wp"? Or maybe
"sdhci,broken-wp"?
Regards,
Eli
