okay, thanks for the explanation. I was also confused by bcm_arasan,
because there is already an Arasan specific sdhci driver. But now it's
clear to me.

Could you please add a short comment (above sdhci_bcm_arasan_data) why
we cannot use bcm2835_data?

Btw the subject isn't complete. The patch is also related to the rpi3.

Best regards
