The more time I've spent looking at all of this stuff the less I like
the exynos bindings.  Personally I'd prefer to see the exynos bindings
fixed rather than go further down the path of these bindings.

Specifically:

1. The "drive" really should be specified quite differently.
According to the DesignWare docs, the "drive" phase is there to meet
hold time requirements.  Hold time requirements are different for
different SD/MMC modes and are specified in nanoseconds (SDR104 is
.8ns, ID mode is 5.0ns).  There is a per-SoC parameter needed that
indicates some built-in delay (in nanoseconds) and that shouldn't
change based on clock speed or card mode.

2. The ciu_div really ought to be automatic.  Start out at a divide by
4.  If you end up with both drive and sample at phases of 0, 90, 180,
270 then you can change to divide by 2.

I still haven't looked at every last detail of these delays though, so
please correct me if I'm wrong.  I've added Alex who may have looked
at this more than I have.


With all of the above, there's also the fact that (I think) we should
be moving towards working with the clock phase API since all of your
values are effectively specifying clock phases, just in a very arcane
way.

As per above, I don't think this is needed.

You are breaking backward compatibility here.  If your change is
merged then all old boards will instantly break.  Since the "dts" and
code changes will likely be merged through different trees you'll end
up with a bunch of broken trees until everything is merged together.
Even if you don't subscribe to the stable bindings theory this is not
acceptable.
