Good to know, this explains why it works without an issue on VIM3.

Well, that WARN is not a big issue for me. I just wanted to help fixing 
the real issue. If I understand right, the brcmfmac driver queues 
incorrectly prepared sd list for the given transfer mode, what should be 
fixed there.

On the other hand, if this is just a limitation of the meson mmc 
controller on SM1/VIM3l, then imho there should not be a WARN there and 
maybe the mentioned 'amlogic,dram-access-quirk' could be used to fix the 
issue on VIM3l too. I've checked and it indeed 'fixes' the issue on that 
board.

Best regards
